67 grill bowtie question
Ok, I have finally got off my butt and am working to finish up my truck. I am currently working on getting the grill assembly done but ran into a possible issue. When I went to put the bowtie emblem on it didn't fit flush. My question is do I have the correct emblem or not?

Re: 67 grill bowtie question
It looks correct to me. I don't remember them being particularly tight fitting. So vague and lose that you can bolt them on upside down.

Re: 67 grill bowtie question
Thanks HO. The black paint tells me it came off my '67. But the fit was just bad I was wondering if I had the right one or not

Mine looks like that too. It’s secured well but big gaps.

Re: 67 grill bowtie question
My bowtie on my 67 original steel painted grill loops fit perfectly, the same with my sons 67 bowtie fit perfectly with the original steel grill loops. We replaced his original steel loops cuase they were rusted beyond repair, so we decided to replace with after market well long story short, original bowtie is not a perfect fit.
