Art,

That is a custom grill hand built by my father. He just passed away and was an avid H body guy. He built the whole frame and rear suspension by hand. The car has 2,025 origanal miles and that is factory paint. I just built the 377 sbc and installed it that he had been saving money to be built. The car has not been on road since 1983. I live in Clinton nj. How bout yourself?
