Re: (( 1960-1966 Chevy/GMC Pickup Truck Restoration/Modification/Customization Ideas
Newbie here... Just curious if there are any modifications needed to bolt on a 62 C10 front grill to a 69 C10?? Or is it just a simple bold on application? I'm in a toss up on either purchasing a 66 c10 or 69 c10.

If the '62 Grill is a steel one there will be a weight difference too. In 1969 The Chevy trucks featured a single round headlight outlined by a square border at each end, separated by a horizontal bar with 'Chevrolet' embossed into it. The Bow Tie emblem was moved to the nose of a more upright hood. It could be done. After work I will hold up my steel painted grille up to a '69 that is in the shop and show you how it would look.
