:confused:I am having some work done on my 34 Hudson Coupe and was asked by the shop fabricator if the Hudson had a support brace in the front to support the front grill. When I bought my coupe, the grill was supported by two braces coming off the radiator and the grill also bolted to the fenders at the bottom. Is there more to it than this? My front end was modified to a Mustang II front end prior to my purchase, so I am unsure of what may have been there to support the front grill prior to this modification. We looked at a 36 Dodge truck he had in the shop and it has a frame that comes off the main frame and encircles and bolts to the inside of the grill. Any pictures or discriptions would be appreciated. Thanks, Walt

    is the '34 any different than the '35? if not, i have no additional support other than what you described for your '34.... bolted at the fenders and two crossing rods from the upper portion of the radiator to brackets on the firewall. regards, tom

    Thanks Tom, I don't think there's any difference. Walt
