620's w/521 grills/custom grills? Any pics??

[Justin]

Does anyone have any pictures of 620's with 521 (or even 510) grilles?

Initially I planned on hacking up two vintage 620 grills, but my heart just isn't in it so much now and I'm wondering about other custom grills.

 

:rolleyes:

I made this grill for my 620 a few years back & still have it. Its an old tube grill for a Chevy van that i modified to fit. Looked ok but i couldnt ever get the hood to shut all the way so i went back to a stock 620 one.

i bought an extra one to hack up and will post up pics when i am done once i figure out how i wanna do it......

I've got some sort of old metal vent off something that I'm considering using. It doesn't have slats like most vents, but rows of little holes. It looks pretty cool, and I think it'd give the truck a pretty mean look, but I'm wary of a potential decrease in airflow over the rad. Maybe I'll find some way to funnel extra air past the rad from down lower.

pope face-

Without seeing the grill, I'll just have to guess,

but I think as far as cooling goes, as long as you have the shroud and all you should be okay...?

Maybe a flex fan? (got one I'm not using, PM me if you're interested)

keep me in suspense why don't you! :mellow:

 

Pac coast-

I always pictured that grill as one from those 80's chevy trucks (like grampa had, his was bent to sh*t though!! Maybe they were the same?). IF I were to go that route I think I might "notch out" the end lights (so they weren't obstructed by the grill?), and lose the top bar maybe to fix the closing issue?

just an idea....

 

Dig a tube grill on a 620!

Sweet!!
