The grille on the car has been painted black, which is incorrect. It should be anodized aluminum. For now I am going to leave it black, I kind of like it that way, but at some point I may strip it and polish it up. Apparently the original owner installed the black bumper guards on the front which I don't like, but the are bolted through so will leave them on for now. The person who semi restored the car assumed they were original and had the bumpers replated, leaving the holes in them for these guards to be re-mounted.
Update, July 2009, I replaced this grille with a New Yorker Grille. See newest photos.
