GMC grill..hands down.
(i voted 67 since you didn't include GMC grills on your poll...at least on a 67 grill you can slap a GMC grill in there easily)

IMO the 67-68 grills are the best looking. Sexy, kind-of

I am going to change my front end to 67 GMC if I can find the parts. The hoods look so much better.

What happened to the "dare to be different" crowd? Go with the 72, it'll give you that "customized" look. If everybody's going for the 67/68 look, wheres the fun?

BTW, I to am building a 67, my reason? Because the general built it that way!

I have to agree with Class of 69 on this one. Why not just a 69 grill? If you have to have 67, or 72 I would have to pick 72.
