Post your Gmc Grills - Custom and Stock

I just realized we don't have a Gmc Grill thread.
Let's see what you got.
Custom or Stock.
Here's mine:

Re: Post your Gmc Grills - Custom and Stock

here's a few of mine - no Chevy ever looked as awesome as any of these babies. My 1956 Aqua colored truck shows the iconic 55-56 type grille, my 64 1500 series shows the 60-66 type, and the White one is a one year only grill on my 1957 Suburban Pickup (GMC's version of a Cameo). Can't find a picture of my 58 GMC - that is a real cool grille too.

NO! if you remove them you will have 4 ugly holes in your bumper and it looks awesome like it is - my two cents

Re: Post your Gmc Grills - Custom and Stock

We used the stock grill but painted it the same color as the interior (metallic fawn) then used the color of the bed to in fill the gmc letters. I have not seen one done like this. I of course have only seen 1 other GMC in person.......
