Re: My New Truck
The "new" grill I just installed, after I did a complete rebuild and restoration on it.
I think the 75-76 grill is one of the best looking grills GM made and of course NOBODY re pops them. Grill came out of a salvage yard and had the typical break near the hood handle (release). It looked really bad but I got it for a decent price. Chrome stripes will be added soon. I scored a really nice set of chrome stripes, off of partsvoice.com for less than 1/2 what they are going for on ebay. |

Re: My New Truck
Good choice on the wheels. Good work on the hubcaps. The truck looks great. It's cool that it shines up so well.

Re: My New Truck
Thanks everybody for the compliments!
My late father would appreciate them since he was more about the “Factory Look” than anything custom. |
