Nice use of the louvered panels. And nice stance of the project too! That grill does remind me of some old tractor grills, and it sets off the car nicely. I know what you mean about the stash pile in and around the garage. My wife is constantly reminding me of why are you keeping this. It never fails when I need a part or a chunk of something to fabricate a tool or whatever, that I take the opportunity to impress on her the financial rewards of junk!
Usually have to buy something to replace what was tossed a week earlier!

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Sorry Lamin8r,
I didn't mean to imply that I thought Bob's grill was from a Fordson, I think it is from a Oliver tractor but could be wrong.
Just saying I liked the Fordson too.

Bob with the tractor grill and louvers thought you'd get a kick out of the Massey Tractor in the middle of this picture.
Here is a closeup

No actually I really do like tractors, always had since a kid when I'd get to drive my Grandma's Massey Fergussin, and my uncle's fancy air conditioned cab Ford tractor. Originally Posted by lamin8r
