67-68 GMC upper grill support?

I know there are some old posts about this, but I'm looking for this piece. As far as I can tell, it's not being reproduced yet. Does anyone have any information on where to find? It's the red piece above the grill in the picture:

I'm almost positive that is not reproduced. There is a 67 GMC grille for sale on the parts board that has the top bar with it.

Thanks for the info guys, I checked out truckandcarshop.com but it looks like they only have the 69-72 top bar.

It's actually a '71 Chevy. I'm changing the front end to a '67 GMC.
I'll be posting the progress soon. Check out my project:

You guys are a great asset to this website and all truck builders across the country. It's nice to know that you see a need and make it happen. I'll be ordering another hard to find item from you in the future- a high hump floor pan.

Re: 67-68 GMC upper grill support?

I was asked to supply my excellent condition OEM filler panel in trade for parts credit (after a couple years of persuading them to do this part), but decided I'd rather keep my OEM than get repro parts. I was going to do it for the team, but chickened out. I've seen people balk at paying $100 for a used piece, I expect they're worth more now
