is anyone able to tell me why the grill teeth on some 56 dodges are smaller than other 56 dodges? i saw a 56 dodge coronet 4 door and it had smaller teeth than other dodges i've seen made in 1956.

 

not that iam a 50s dodge expert. but here goes. i going to guess that in the 50s and some of the 60s a model like a coronet would come with only one engine. i do know that a 57-58 new yorker came ONLY with a 392 hemi. that car had a number stamped on the block, that told you that the engine was in a new yorker, ie meaning it was a 392 hemi. allso chrysler at that point didnt put any thing in the VIN that told you what engine was in that body. i think they started putting the engine info in to the VIN in 1966, i think. i have never counted the the teeth in mopar grills, ill be on the look out from now on

 

thanks for the reply,moe
