WTB 71-72 Outer Grill. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jorgensensc · 06-15-2007, 05:19 PM

I would like to buy a nice driver outer grill for my truck. I don't mind some scratches or a couple of small dings, but I would prefer no large dents, bends or gouges. Please let me know as soon as possible. Preferably near Houston due to shipping, but not necessary to be close!
Thanks!!
Shawn

Anyone?

GMC AMI · 06-16-2007, 01:17 PM

I have one if you can't find a closer one. Shipping from Maine may run over 50 bucks.

**6t727t2** · 06-16-2007, 04:59 PM

Have this one, small dent on left side & bottom bend on left side (looks like it could be pushed out by hand?) $75 + $ 45 shipping.

Thanks 6t727t2,
Great price, but I was hoping for something with a little less work for the moment. I have enough other work to do right now. I will keep it in mind though.

I'll take It!!! Can you give me a total including shipping to 77018? do you take paypal? Thank you very much!! It looks like you have several. Are they all for your projects? If one of the others is as nice as this one and the inner grill is nice, I would buy one of those instead, if they are for sale. My inner grill is cracked ina few places, but still looks okay, that is why I'm mostly concerned about the outer grill, But if you have a complete grill your wanting to sell as nice as this outer you have I would be interested. If not I will definately take the outer! Thanks!!

I will look and see if I have a decent inner grill, The other 2 you see in pic are for my projects. I sold a grill to Rimrock in N Jersey, shipping via fedex cost 85.00. I will find a box, and get estimate

It would seem I am a bit late. If have an inner I can take a new pic of if you need one, nice shape. Only crack by one of the mounting holes not visable from outside the hood. Thanks for the response.

Wow, I hope shipping isn't that high for me! I shipped a Fleet tailgate (50 ponds) via Fed Ex to Past Phoenix Arizona for 35.00. Hopefully we can be in the same ballpark. Whatever you do, please get insurance on it. Let me know!

I double boxed it, measurements were 85x25x19, approxamately, and weighed 21 lbs, I am in 80910, you can call fedex yourself and get estimate

ChevyDude · 06-17-2007, 07:56 PM

I hope I didn't say something to offend you. I am not doubting your shipping costs, I was just stating that I hope it doesn't cost as much to send it here. Shipping costs are odd. I shipped a hood from Minnasota to Houston once. Fedex wanted almost 200.00, but Greyhound wanted 85.00 next day. However when I shipped 2 trailing arms, intake and carb and a tailgate to Arizona via Fedex for 100.00, but Greyhaound would have been over 100.00 for the tailgate to Arizona. Shipping is goofy all the way around. Once again I hope my statement wasn't offensive, but if it was I apologize. I will check on shipping today and let you know.
Thanks,
Shawn

I live on W. 42nd street. Where abouts are you?
Shawn

jorgensensc · 06-18-2007, 10:12 AM

okay, who are y'all using to ship? Fedex just told me over 300.00 to ship. It seems the dimensions are over what they consider a large package and they want to charge frieght cost. Even getting the dimensions down to what they consider large package they wanted over 100.00. Greyhound told me it was too big to ship (length can't exceed 6 ft), and even then it would be 57.00. Ebay is selling them and shipping for 38.50. So who are y'all using?
