I remember back when those were on eBay. Should have picked one up back then. Damn hindsight.



You mean to flip or you would actually like to put one on your car?



To flip it. I actually am not a fan of it. I already have headlights and fogs. No need for anymore lights on the front of my cars, IMO.

I love that grille...the problem is that if I'd buy one I'd be too tempted to put red and blue strobes in it.
My car being black and all, it would make for the perfect undercover police car. Only thing is I'm not a police officer, so that would probably get me in trouble. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/hsugh.gif

Just use the fog lights. That's what I did when I was in vice. It really freaked them out to get pulled over by a VR4 with strobes, siren and a loud hailer ... Oh the good ole days!

No the picture is 3 blackstone cores welded together. Blackstone built the cores for the SVO and Turbo coupe fords. Ugly but running the air into and out of each core created alot of turbulence inside and during the winter if it was misting rain or sleet I had to put towels down in the garage because after it was pulled in the ice and slush would melt and create one hell of a mess in the shop. Thing was super efficient and can't remember who bought it but I think I shipped it to California.

Have to remember when I built the thing IC's were still bringing 1K dollars on ebay. Think I did it in like 01 then later built 3 inch pipes and welded short route tubes on it.

click me for what it looked like on a ford

No way that was yours? I remember seeing that picture way back in the day running around on the internet. I always thought they were dsm cores welded together.
