I ran with Pete on Power Tour. That car hauls ass and takes a good beatin'. Maybe it's a show car, but he didn't treat it like one--rain or shine. Which is why he's UPDATING it.
Then again Pete, I never noticed all that incredible metal work behind the grille. It's time to stop hiding it. The center opening is small enough that you can take a factory 67/68 RS grille and cut it down to fit. Then build a shiny stainless or chromed perimeter frame for the new cut down grille like the surround used on a 69 RS grille. Paint the plastic grille whatever color looks right to you-titanium, charcoal, argent.
Are you changing the wheels? I think the "flame" wheels are unnecessary given the paint job and body mods. Plus you can match the wheel center color to the grille color.
