Yeah, that Laser cut grill is Probably for a Car.

If you choose them, I would Call first.

Truck and car grill for 38 is different as you know.

Truck

This part fits most 1938 Chevrolet Trucks; exceptions may apply. Please read the complete description to see if this part fits your specific vehicle and application.

Car
polished SS and plain steel for cars, This is a gangster style 1938 grille for a street rod. It's laser cut out of bare steel. The measurements are: 11-11/16 inches from center to edge at top of grille. Roughly 18-1/2 inches from top mount to top mount.

What is the difference for the car one to the truck??
Not the same info for both, Truck is saying 29-3/8" down the center.
the car saying The measurements are: 11-11/16 inches from center to edge at top of grille. Roughly 18-1/2 inches from top mount to top mount.

TOP mount to TOP mount, what the hay does that mean.
