Heck Uncle Bob, I have been caught out this time about the grille havn't I ?
Is the lettering stamped into the centre piece? I do like the inserts too as they are not over powering on the eye. So please accept my humble apologie for my first comment, so sorry Uncle Bob... Will you be running a full hood or bonnet for us southern chaps. And what motor etc will be making home between the rails?? Heck I am a nosy person ain't I ??

Hope ya put ya knee pads on for the apology,Whip...Was going to say,that if Uncle Bob wanted to,he could throw that roadster in a small box,and heave it down here,so I could take some molds off it,and the grille shell too....

Now that is an excellent idea Robin as I have done some research and there doesn't appear to be anyone down here building 28/29 Model A roadster or coupe bodies. I know that rodder in Auckland brought in the steel brockfield roadster to sell and that guy in Nelson has bodies also but,yeah the big BUT, I have to finish the bucket before I start on the next project or all my words of wisdom I have and still give Steve Phihps about too many half completed projects in his garage will be thrown back into my face eh.

Bob, love that grill, I think I used to pilot one of those on the dairy farms I worked on as a kid. I always thought a Fordson grill would look nice on a 30s rod.
