Is this a 69 or 70 Grille

Ok...I keep confusing these Grilles...
I cleaned out 1/3 of my garage tonight and and found this along with a lot of other truck parts was un-buried. Is this a 69 or 70 Grille?
Thanks

Re: Is this a 69 or 70 Grille

The great debate is on

Like I said...I still get these two years confused.

Definitely a 1970. Sicklajoie's truck in this thread shows what a 69 looks like. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=530587

Yep - I was mistaken - at first look I didn't see the little vertical separators - sorry about the false alarm!! Definitely a 70.
