Yep, I agree 100%. Best looking grilles in the bunch. That's what I wanted to do to the '78 I showed. My favorite square light grille is 83/84 dual light, color matched center bar all the way across and between headlights. Very cool

Nice 2wd K5!

Definitely, but the 75-76 gmc is really growing on me lately.

Also ran a chevy grille and tailgate til I found this nice gmc

My old 78 I sold a couple years ago. I sure hope the guy that bought it calls me one day so I can buy it back….

I like the 83/84 front ends too. This is my ‘84 K10 with an 85ish front end. Well, don’t look too close because it’s actually a GMC that I had to badge as a Chevy until I could find a nice GMC grill to replace the cracked one it came with. I put a Chevy tailgate band and camper special teepee cab trim on it because I figured it might as well be very incorrect.

I bought a nice 84 GMC grill for it from a board member a few years back but haven’t taken the time to take it back to full GMC. I like the Chevy grill better but am intrigued to see what it looks like as a GMC.

It seems I'm not the only one that swaps grills around.

75-76 GMC grills are nice too. The '78 Jimmy I have had it's factory grill in it when I got it but it was all cracked up. Nice round headlight GMC grills for '75 and later are really hard to find without damage in my experience.

Took me several years to find a nice gmc one.
