Case Nutty 1660

I have been admiring you pictures for some time. A John Deere guy by birth, but a closet Case fan. In your pictures, I have noticed some Dodge trucks in the backround. I am restoring a "52 Dodge 2-ton and need some grille pieces, any chance of you having a parts truck???

The first step in recovery is admitting you have a problem. We can wean you of that congenital disease.

Thanks for the reply, a shot in the dark at best. Been looking for a couple of years, with no luck. As for being a closet Case fan, I had a neighbor-family friend who farmed with Cases for years. He has since passed away, but his son has kept a few of his Cases around. Ironically he farms with Deere's now, and a clean LA is on my bucket list.

Try these people. They have a lot of that stuff. They are called Dick and Mike's Hot Rod Garage.

I know where there is a '50's something 1/2T Dodge that has a good grill. Don't know if they are the same, but the owner may be interested in selling parts if they would work. Just where are you located? It is in SE SD. Holler back if you think the grill may work & I'll check with the owner. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)

The grille on a 52-53 Dodge are the same. Maybe late 51? They have a "Job Rated" emblem/badge in the center of the grille. What I am looking for is the bar that goes thru the top 1/2 of that emblem. It runs horizontally thru the center of the grille opening, and is 4 pieces. I am in south central Minnesota between Mankato and Albert Lea. Will be coming thru SE SD in a couple weeks to go to the NATPA pull in Lincoln, NE. ANY help would be much appreciated. Funny... but I have posted an ad in the "classic trucks" section of this site several times with no response. A Deere guy posts on the Case page for Dodge truck parts, and gets a lead.
Thanks for any help.
