too much stuff
It even has the rare inner grill for the 69 model. This was a one year only item. Am I correct in thinking that this is the one that is no longer available?

The inner grill is from a 70 and the only way you can get them now is used or NOS |

I asked him about the grill and he bought most of the parts about 14 years ago from a gm dealer. Even the engine was built many years ago and not even started until recently.

This is the first time I ever saw someone tilt the sidemarkers, but I kind of like it. Makes the truck look a little more unique.

it looks like markers from a cutlass built in the early 70's. I can't remember if the big cars had them or not. BTW, here's a photo of them in the "normal" application
