Aftermarket Grille
 
I know ideally go with OEM or NOS. Unfortunately I don’t have the ability to go to swap meets or find one locally.

Who makes the beat quality replacement grille. I have found AutoMetaldirect, OER, or good mark. Recently someone bought a steel chrome from LMC but I can’t find the manufacture

Thanks

Inner grille or the outer grill bright work?
I got my inner from summit. Can’t recall the manufacture but fir well and looks great
My outer grill for my ‘70 was from “Tri-plus” or something like that. Can’t recall for sure
Fit really nice and looks great. I
It was a little pricey but worth it to me

Thanks. I’m looking for both in and outer. The plan is to go through summit because the offer the best shipping and sometimes best prices. No offense to smaller companies.

Thanks. I believe looking from rockautos site yours is a Goodmark. I’m leaning toward the steel chrome vs alum.

I bought the Chrome Steel from LMC and Love it. Sorry I don’t have a pic of the box it came in to show Mgt but NICE Quality part. Not cheap but worth it in my book
The Red dot is a magnet. Pic doesn’t do it justice

Thanks. I’m gonna give LMC a call and see who makes it. You just put your on in the last few months?

Yes a month or so ago. They were out of stock for a long time. Last look Steel was in stock Aluminum was B.O.

Beware Autoparts .com shows a steel grill but it’s NOT

For me going through Summit is the most cost effective for shipping. For example I plan to order the mar-k trim—directly though mar-k is around 400 in shipping where Summit is 110.

AMD is the sole manufacturer of the steel grille.
