I put a tubular grille in my 55 Victoria, one of Butch's, very nice fit, looks great. I fabbed some slimline LED lights in for turn and park, looks a lot better than big lights in back of the grille. Terry Keplinger, from Butch's Cool Stuff was very helpful with installation, he posted a pic of the car on Facebook and just notified me that they also put the car in their new catalog. Gotta keep getting these 50s era Fords out there. Gary

Looks great Gary!

  

You're not interested in selling the stock grille are you? I just bought a 55 vicky and it has the tubular grille and I want to go back to stock with it.

Pretty sure you want to hang on to it....just thought I'd ask.

How about more detail on the LEDs?

The LED's came from RODWORX.COM, under flushmount category. They had a booth at the Back To The 50s in Minn., across from Butch's, I took one over to Butches, checked its fit and bought two of them. Six very bright LED's, six inches long and a little under one inch tall. I 90d a piece of stainless flat stock, drilled and mounted it. Hooked up to existing wiring, park and turn. I"ve seen lots of these obnoxious light displays at the GoodGuys shows, lots of different brands, but the same premise. Gary

For what its worth I once put a 65 Galaxie grill in my 55. Granted this was back in 67, however it fit pretty good just a little trimming.
