this would be a cool option for a camper special

[pimpston65]

its cool, i guess. since im crafty i took some pics i could totally make that screen and vinyl with a little twine. cheap $50 buy now.... jkjk nice find

[aerotruk63]

I have one for my truck, after all, it is an accessory. Real men accessorize!

[1963c-10]

yeah, i agree with both of you. and it does look like it'd be pretty easy to make. i can copy the factory install papers for you if you need them pimpston65. might help with some measurements

[pimpston65]

ima look for the mesh this weekend cuz i think its tiny squares and loose like chainmail suits and i guess i can use rivets for the 4 eyelets eh. if you print a copy the would be awesome i can make it same size as the radiator im assuming thats all it should protect right and the vinyl strip will be a breeze

The bugs in Florida would destroy that thing in a week or less. They got some BIG bugs down there! It would be more like a sieve. Just chops them up in smaller pieces. Just change it out for a new screen when you can't see through it anymore I guess. LOL!

how bout i put a bunch gators on my grill to eat em. my dads in jax and ex inlaws in ft myers so i know how them bugs be!!!!

I looked this morning in the accessory book. They have all the bug screens listed, but not for the radiators. They are the bug screens for the windows on the vans/wagons. But they look pretty cut and dry.

[pimpston65]

thats just dumb, well at any rate it does exist so ima work on my ideas at the craft and building supply store just wont have the instructions maybe the seller can put a closeup pic and i can snag it and reproduce it. i got a auto museum library close i can go through the archives and see if they have it

[pimpston65]

found a part number and year

[1963c-10]

Ill look through some more literature I have and see what else I can find tonight. I know its in the accessory purchase book, just not in the 63 accessory install book.

[pimpston65]

i found and bought this. tell me what u think

[1963c-10]

From the 63 accessory book. Looks like the part # changes from 61 to 63.

[pimpston65]

i thinks a different screen type but oh well its cheap and looks good

[1963c-10]

The pics from the auction

[pimpston65]

looks close not sure if the size change as it is a full size vehicle

[pimpston65]

it didnt say repop on the one i bought nor didnt it say NOS

[pimpston65]

most likely a repop as the paper is different amd im not sure if the paper is sewn into the vinyl. like a pillow only to be removed by owner????

[pimpston65]

like i need a bugscreen, anyway i found one other screen on ebay. i offered $50 plus shipping we'll see if i get the real boy i can make a copy of the paper and sew it into the repop and send it ur way as i will only need one screen

[1963c-10]

Sounds good.

[pimpston65]

please quit showing cool s**t, cuz then i go and find it. im soo close to reassembly i dont need more stuff just kidding always cool to see odd pieces for this truck keep em coming

[1963c-10]

[LT1 Burb]

[pimpston65]
