Re: WestyHo build
I have some Galaxy grill pics too. The one you posted might be easier to fab, than the comet.

Re: WestyHo build
This may be jumping ahead, but planning now stops a lot of rework. Have you thought about the size of head light bulbs you are going to use. It may make a difference on the opening for where you want to put them. The 4 inch tractor/motorcycle/spot light bulb to me is the best choise for size when building on carts. JMO. You are doing such great work, I would hate it for you to have to redo because of an oversight. Keep up the good work and please keep us posted, with picks.

Re: WestyHo build
Rodgers, Thank you! It's good to know we're on the same page. Years ago I bought 4, 3-1/2" halogen Burners but I can only find 2 of them Anything larger than 4" wouldn't fit in the area I have to use and probably wouldn't look right even if they did. I'm actually going to the bike junkyard today to see if I can find 4. I want the ones with the chrome rings to cut down on some fabrication. Yes, they have to be DOT approved so I can pass the inspection when it's built. 3" would probably be better for size ratio but those are hard to find, especially on my budget. I also have to worry about wattage. The quad stator only puts out 137 watts. I'm working on the grill/headlights section now. I only have 4-3/4" to work with at the top (narrow) section where the headlights will go.
Thanks so much for your input! |

Re: WestyHo build
Yw. Did a lot of fab on my build and just thought i would throw that out there for you. Early Fords have a great grill and head light arrangment to copy. I will continue to watch.

Re: WestyHo build
Thank you. I've built so many over the years. Just wait till these hooligans start telling you "no bumpers, not that bumper" Seems we have a "vision" of what we want it to look like, sometimes it works the first time, sometimes it doesn't. You just keep building

Re: WestyHo build
Found some driving lights from 2-2019 Jeep JLs. They look more like headlights than what I had to use. It's been between 110-119* here in the last few weeks. Too dang HOT to work outside. 😡😤😳 Still have to make the bottom of the grill, below the 1" spacer, the headlight buckets, and tweak the grill frames.
