The grill on the left is from the medium duty trucks ,c-60 ,c80 and yes bezels from a pickup grill will work. 1962-63

Brilliant. Now I am off to hunt for bezels. I think that would be a fun mod to the stakeside. Continue its path to medium duty....

best i can tell searching its from 62. Most everything else has the dual headlamps

Thanks guys. I have my eye out for the bezels now. While I am going through the electrical I think this will be a fun swap if I can find the bezels reasonably.

Re: 62? 63? Grille Question

something to keep in mind, the c60^ had a flat grille support, the c/10-20-30 had a angle to it, so you might need a set of 62 headlight bucket/grille supports off a c10 too.

I have one of these grilles as well, but I haven't tried to fit it yet.

also (you can see in the pics) some of the big truck headlight rings had 2 screws, some 4.
I think all the c/10-20-30 were 4 screw so they are probably more common.

your best bet is to find a junked 62 grille, just keep an eye out at wrecking yards,cl, and ebay
those grille supports are 62 only
