1972 GMC Grill mod
I don't know if this is anything new, but I have just recently made a modification to my 72 GMC grill that is quite neat. I took the
center grill sections (the honeycomb) from a late model Dodge truck grill and transplanted them to the grill shell of my 72 GMC Jimmy. The result was a very attractive addition to the front appearance. If anyone is interested in the particulars of the mod....just let me know....I'll share specifics.
