show your grill
Let me see your grill. I'm trying to decide if I want to put the original 68 front clip back on or go with a new billet grill for the 70-72.

Re: show your grill
Not sure but I think they are MT's they were on one of my parts trucks and I had them polished. Only bad thing is they are 16.5 and the tires cost more for them and you are limited on suppliers

Re: show your grill
Billet grills are nice..... BUT I love the look of the 67 to 68 grills the best. Here is my 67 truck grill a little rusty, but I just got done with the motor and suspension mods and now it is time for the body work.

Re: show your grill
That's where I'm torn, I love the looks of all of them. I'm trying to think ahead on what I want my truck to look like. That will be a major factor in which grill I choose.

Re: show your grill
I like the way the bow tie breaks up the massive grille.
That's a beautiful truck. Simple, clean and classic. |
