Re: 73 grill ?
Now go back and get the three grille brackets with latch assembly, Then you can make some bux....
I wouldn't call the 454 emblem perfect, Maybe driver quality....

Re: 73 grill ?
Now that Top Banana is selling reproduction 73-74 grills they aren't that rare any more. What is rare is the bowtie and 350 or 454 emblem. Tim Christian (Top Banana) had a few spare bowties to sell, but I think they are all gone now.

Nice grille but please bear in mind the site rules when it comes to selling things...I do realize that you have not offered to sell anything yet, but you may be approached privately by another member for a sale

Re: 73 grill ?
No I didnt post this to sell it. I just wanted to know if it was rare or not. I mean I don't have anything to put it on. It won't fit on my 84

Re: 73 grill ?
I have one grille , a 74 GMC 454 unit that needs restoration . It has just been hanging around for years. I have always liked the way those grilles looked so I have kept it for all thses years. Maybe I need to start a wall art collection.

Re: 73 grill ?
I have had one on my garage wall for a couple of years. I picked it up thinking I might restore it and put it in my Blazer. I sold the Blazer, but kept the grill. Today it came in really handy. I used it for a mock up piece on my conversion. It allowed me to get the install ready with out risking my new grill.
