I honestly didnt read that it was ford headlights that had been used, I'm at work and glanced and thought they were newer gmc , after going to lunch and looking on my phone, it saddens me they used ford lights Not my style as I love the all original clip. Maybe someone who builds customs on here will benefit from it?

Something like that is so "special" and "priceless," it should go straight to an art gallery or museum, and never, ever get installed on a truck.

That pretty much sums up my thoughts.


Now the GMC grille would look good on a truck.

...or left in the trailer . I've never understood what it is that makes people want to take a truck that is so loved for it's great looks and want to completely alter it . "Hey man,it's a 67-72 GM Truck under all this crap"..."Cool!"

Re: Unique front clip ksl classified UTAH Hopefully someone here will benefit

over the years i've actually seen a couple of trucks on the road that were customized with similar mods// yep they are as ugly on a fully done truck as a discared front clip is

Re: Unique front clip ksl classified UTAH Hopefully someone here will benefit

Doesn't look good on an 88-98

Or a 99-02

Can't imagine it would look good on a 67-72. I'm actually a little heartbroken a 67-68 grille had to die for the cause.
