Grill issues, I think its time to follow the street rod crowd and use billet.

["hal lynch" <haldlynch@xxxxxxx>]

I have been tip toe-ing around my 70 AMX front end for 20+ years in mortal fear of leaning on the grill and cracking it.  Our brethren in the street crowd have addressed this issue many years ago with the creation of billet aluminum grilles, why not us AMC’ers?

 

 

Taking a closer look at my 70 AMX grill I think that it could be re-created in billet and think I might just start out the long process of figuring out how.  A couple questions for you experts…

 

1. Does anyone have any pieces of the 70 AMX grill they can lend/sell to me to use as templates and share with potential fabricators.  I don’t want to us e a mint grille as we all know it will break.
2. Has anyone heard of anybody fabricating or able/willing to take on the initial fabrication of a 70 AMX grille. If I can find a fabricator,  I will be willing to fund an initial 10-20 grills for the hobby.

 

Let me know if you have any grille pieces or contacts to help me start this process.
