HOTFUN · 06-21-2005, 12:19 AM

Looking for an original 75 or 76 grill for my Blazer. Could also use the lower metal grill mount and the upper and lower grill trim.
Thanks

i have a 70s grill here, im not really sure of the year though... its in nice shape, good bowtie, 3 chrome bars with a gray "background"... i only have 2 pics that sort of show it, dunno if you can tell the year by these pics? they really suck.. ill get some better pics to if you would like. i was asking $60

That looks like the right grill. Could you try and get some better pictures and would you also have the above and below the grill chrome strips and possibly the metal filler panel with the clear turn signals lens below the grill?
Thanks

this is what LMC shows for the 75-76 grills... the parts with blue arrows and red checks i have, the parts with green Xs i dont... if you notice the pink "8" and "4" thats how many holes are on each side... mine is an 8x4 also, and it doesnt match any of the other year grills... i dont have the panel below the grill though

i'll have to wait untill tomarow to get more pics, have to get some new camera batteries from the girlfriend

Blue_71 · 06-23-2005, 07:57 PM

pics 2, in this set it shows a crack... if you line the crack back up you cant hardly see it, and should be fine with a little dab of super glue... ill take $55 for it if i can keep my 350 emblem

'78 Fleetside · 06-23-2005, 09:51 PM

Here you go, Its off my '78. Its in Very Nice condition, no dents in the chrome parts that i can see. The black stripes in the middle of the chrome are chipped. But VERY hard to notice, i never noticed till i went outside just now to look at it. There are a few sunspots? i guess you can say.. on the black plastic part, Very few though, again, not noticable. And im sure some kind of armorall or something like that may be able to take care of it. Ill let it go for $40. Here are a few pictures. Send me a PM if your interested.

'78 Fleetside · 06-23-2005, 09:52 PM

Btw, The Emblem looks in near perfect condition.

'78 Fleetside · 06-25-2005, 08:57 PM

still interested?

dswancutt · 06-25-2005, 10:07 PM

Guys;

Don't worry about the small cracks or even small pieces that are broken out. Go to Hobby Lobby or Hobbytown USA and get Ambrod Pro Weld or Tenax 7r. These are designed to bond ABS plastics like what is used for the grille. It actually melts and fused the parts together. All you have to do is put the pieces together, and apply the solvent with a small cheap brush. This works better than superglue and is almost as strong as the original part.

Hope this helps.

Doug

Thanks for your pictures and offer of your 78 grill. I would still prefer to keep my 76 Blazer with a correct 75 or 76 grill if I can find one in nice condition. I am still working with the possibility of Blue71's grill and a near new take out 76 from a local guy if it materializes here shortly.
