The GMC headlights are actually smaller than the chevy versions, there's just more of them

Nice pic though

Dang it, missed the picture.

I have all Chevys at the moment, but I do so like the GMCs. 4-eyes Rule!

Re: Which would you pay more for, Chev or GMC?

I will go either way. I like the gmc grills more for the chrome. As they say though, four eyes are better than one.

Re: Which would you pay more for, Chev or GMC?

I like all the GM models that were available, so I voted for both. However, I would tend to lean towards the Chevrolet, but if the GMC body was rust free it would definitely win.

Re: Which would you pay more for, Chev or GMC?

I bet a loaded big block`72 short wide bed Sierra Grande could fetch more than a Cheyenne Super.It`s got a touch of exotic,just like muscle cars.Across the line Chevy`s made the most and best line of great looking,running lasting designs.But,hand pick select Buick,Pontiac,Olds,and even Cadillac muscle and you`ve hit the jackpot.Common place doesn`t bring the most money.Rarity dictates value,even when less want it.GMCs aren`t exactly undesireable.

Re: Which would you pay more for, Chev or GMC?

I like the 69 - 70 Chevy Grille the best, 71 and 72 have too much plastic

There's no plastic on the GMC grills.

Re: Which would you pay more for, Chev or GMC?

Thanks everyone for your thoughts on this.
When looking around eBay it seems Chevs are asking more, but what does that mean!
