1977-80 GMC deluxe grill REFINISHED F/S

Hey everyone-I have one of my GMC grills ready for sale! This grill is in excellent condition-the center emblem is an original, used and very nice piece with only slight wear on the plastic chrome finish. The stainless trim pieces are equally nice as well! I'm asking $700 plus shipping for this grill. I've spent a considerably amount of time correctly masking and re-finishing this scarce grill-it displays very nice!

Good grief...I didn't know these grills are worth that much. Time to pull that '78 Sierra Classic I have behind the barn and part it out, lol.

In good shape they sell ok-but to really up the value you need to restore them properly. I've got extensive experience with plastic/fiberglass repair and color matching so it helps to have some background in that. These trucks always got beat up so it's tuff finding nice, clean OEM grills to restore-there's always cracked/missing ribs, busted mounting locations, etc. It's very time consuming to restore one like new but after the work it all is worthwhile because nothing looks better imo than an OEM grill that is as nice as new in appearance!
