Score!!

Hey guys!

I was wandering through a garage sale today, when I spotted what appears to be a 73 - 74 Chevy grill. But get this -- The thing looks like it was pulled out of the box yesterday! It needs the displacement emblem, but otherwise, that thing is absolutely mint!

Here is the score part of it -- 25 bucks!

Anyone need a good grill, or should I send it to ebay?

Keep a look out on eBay, as they were fairly common. Of all the 73-80 grilles, it is the most sturdy and probably the easiest to find unbusted. The worst are the 77-79 grilles. I have about 6 stockpiled for my 3 trucks. If you look at them wrong, they break.

i like the look of the 73-74 grills better

they sit back a few inches deeper than the other years. with some modification they can be made to fit into the 75-80 trucks as well. i have a 74 gmc grill in my 79 chevy.

I agree, I have a 79 and when I go to shut the hood it breaks. LOL I have zip ties holding it on.
