I just purchased a Spirit grill off Ebay for 32 bucks. It's like the one Mav has on his lifted Eagle.

Pooping on an Eagle is a serious offence, a crime punishable by firing squad....time to bust out the pellet guns  >:D

Thanks, yeah, such a cool/long story about how I came about getting this car. I'm glad you took the time to read it. It was sooo nice looking I couldn't pass it up.

I love the power bulge hood, but there is just something American about that hood ornament staring back at you on the regular hood! :)

Just installed the new spirit grill. Love the look, unfortunately it does have a couple bad spots on the top of it...was hard to get a good picture of those blemishes, but for now I'm just rolling with it as is.

PS. I did tighten those top screws down. I was still test fitting when I took the pics. :)

I am looking for that small square AMC logo that is supposed to go in the blank spot in the bottom right corner.

I did pick up some Eagle Post Emblems...the ones with the Eagle head on them...and was thinking I might try placing it in that location.
