That is just how I pictured doing a diesel core support with the '70's grille would work best.
Nice job welding it up.
Are you planning on using an intercooler on this build, behind that grille?

I just love the way 70's Dodge trucks look with that aluminum grille and round headlights.
That was well worth the effort. It looks great!

You know, looking at that, I wonder if it would be just as easy to do the same thing to my kids 89 non IC front? His truck has the Banks Intercooler and there is no room for anything other than that cheesy square tube grille. Has anyone used the later non-birdbath hood with the aluminum grille?
Also, is the Aluminum grille fairly well flush with the front of the fender, not recessed like the plastic 89?
Would it even bolt onto the 89 fenders?

I agree. I concur ! My favorite look as well.
There was an old TV show called Emergency. Loved that truck..
