Default 1933 Tudor help
Hello,

I just purchased a 1933 Tudor basket case and looking for resources for putting it back together. I may need a different grille or hood since they do not match, the grille is heavy-cast aluminum with no tongue for the radiator cap and the hood has the cutout for the cap/hood ornament. Thank you in advance for your consideration and help.

Grille originally was chrome-plated steel so what you have may be the culprit, but as noted above, without photos of both the grille and hood, we can't be much help.

Hello everyone,

Thank you all for the information and I will post pictures, soon. I have a four (4) piece hood and a heavy-cast aluminum grille for a three (3) piece hood, therefore, I will be looking for a grille that has the tongue for a four (4) piece hood mounting point.

Thanks again,

You will not only NEED the correct grill but all of the correct brackets as well!!!
