I spoke with Kurk from Custom Van and he said he could make me a custom billet grille when it's done. He has those billet grilles for Chevy, but not Dodge. I think that should set the "rounds" off really well. Sounds cool brother ! | | | Re: 85 Dodge "Root Beer" | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 Supreme Master | OP Supreme Master Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 21,211 Likes: 25 | Not much to report. Went down and grabbed a 'virgin' harness out of another 85 in the junkyard. It had the roundy round headlights, but the grill was gone! Crap. Anyhoo, only took about an hour to pull the new harness. Now I can hopefully eliminate the aftermarket fuse block under the hood. I hate hacked up wiring!! Why do people do that shit?

Will go along with the old school rod paint scheme I'm thinking of.
