    Yes, I could order the plate..........but I'm in no position at present to build my Dream '33 unfortunately.

    As I was drawing that plate mount it occurred to me that one of the FF cottage-industry guys might pick up on it and make money out of it. I don't have a problem with that, just give me credit guys It would solve a problem that presents itself to builders from several Provinces and States. Hideaway mounts work on the back of rods, but you'd need some pretty fancy linkage set up to hide one under the nose of a '33 without drastically reducing ground clearance as it operated...........plus it would then detract from the visual impact while you're driving.

    Yesterday I watched ZZ-Top's "Gimme All Your Lovin'" and the start of "The California Kid". You just can't clutter up that grille V shape. It just looks so wicked as the car approaches a viewer and visually lowers the car as it draws the eye downward.
