Re: 69-70 grille ?

If you mean the outer (shiny) part....yes. It's been done many times. The inner part (plastic) is different for the 71-72, but you already knew that, right?

Chevy or GMC (i'm guessing GMC since your user name is GMC AMI)

I think the 69-72 GMC grills all bolt in the same.

Sorry for not being better at asking my ? This would be for a 72 Chevy and even if I only had one GMC truck out of the 7, My first one was a 71 GMC 4x4. In case people do not know ami is french for friend! Not Amy so yes I am not a woman yet! LOL. Thanks for your reply.
