Next project

i have not picked it up nor looked at paperwork yet but i can tell from examining pics of the hood and grill that it cant be a 53. with looking at pics it looks like it has to be 54-56 due to the way the center section of the hood comes down to the grill from the top of the hood.

I agree the hood looks the same as my 56 was, also finding a nice grill is like "looking for a needle in a haystack"
