Why does this remind me of the wide mouth frog joke?
You don't see many of them do you !!
Seriously, the grille looks like an early Routemaster one.

Narrowing and loosing the centre mullion would look far tidier.

I no what your saying about you don't think its original but there no other holes at all on the body.Only the ones were this grill bolts to the body.There no photos of any other i was told only two were made.Looking at the grill now i have took all the paint off and you can see aluminium you can see some work as gone into making the grill.

I imagine that there are no other holes because that's the only grille that had been fitted, if that makes sense. If I drilled one hole in my wing to fit an aerial that the car previously didn't have it doesn't mean that it becomes the original aerial. I should imagine it would have not have a bolt on grille at all, the one in the picture, albeit different from your van, is probably part of the body pressing. Now, not to sound too negative or drag this post down, here's a neat idea  - if you like the grille, have a play around. The easiest way to emulate the full size grill would be to paint/black vinyl behind the grille where the bodywork is noticeable and straight away it'll look much neater not being able to see bodywork. That way you can decide if you like it with the full grille or weather you want to try to cut it down. (ETA: Because I don't want to sound negative at all, I love this quirky little van and seeing your last build, makes me anticipate the finished van quite a bit!) |
