It's all good. I got a buddy who can do this stuff.
 
Yea, everyone does...

Don't rely on the buddy system for one. Two, to make the font end look like that, you're forgetting things like, the engine. Or the radiator. Or that you'll have to build the entire underpinnings from scratch.

I understand what kind of work it takes to make one of these. And you don't know my buddy. You have no Idea what kind of work hes capable of producing.
 
May I offer an alternative?

Get ahold of an Australian truck front end. They have a really cool front end you won't see here in the states.

EDIT: look for a pic now
Yes, the would look Great with a billet grille. But can u imagine the price for a front clip shipped to the USA or Canada? ? Probably more to ship than the clip would cost

Proly be cheeper for him to make the caddy front end.
 
If he's doing all the work for free maybe, but I think you underestimate the hours it takes to do that kind of custom work.

Plus you have to find all the parts from a wrecked caddy, which isn't going to be cheap either. Honestly, I think it'd be about the same price to ship the clip and definitely cheaper if your buddy charges you even half of what his normal rates are.

This is the guys truck in nj.
What front end is that???? Did everything just bolt on or did he have to cut?? You got a link to his profile or his screen name??
 
ANNNNNNNNDDDD that doesn't look like its worth the trouble. I honestly never understood the fascination of messing up the front or rear ends of vehicles to put "Cadillac" conversions on them. Is it to say I have a caddy front? To each his own, but its bad taste imo.

That has Escalade front headlamps, a custom grille and an Xtreme bumper
