Stainless Grill for 70-72?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone know where to get a stainless steel grill for a 70-72 version? All I seem to find is either billet grills or the OEM plastic gray ones. I am looking for the OEM style but make out of metal.

Any help or suggestions would be great!!

Thanks.
Daniel

Sorry meant to say 71-72 grill. Where can I find one?

Are you talking the outter or inner grill? The grille with the head lights cutouts or the center section that is called the egg crate from the factory.

This is mine I just redid. It's a factory outter with a billet center, I personaly haven't seen a billet grille that looked like the factory one.

I'm talking about the inner grill. And the picture that you just posted is what I'm not looking for. I am looking for the exact same style of the 71-72 inner grills that have the small rectangles all over with the Bowtie in the middle.

Yes I realized that! As I said in the first post I haven't seen a billet egg grille.
Sorry for trying to understand what it was you want, since you were so clear in the prevous 2 posts.

Nothing is availible in Stainless steel. Just chrome plated steel outer grill shells. I have seen the ones you are talking about for the 98 and newer trucks. WES

The only factory looking 71/72 outer grilles made are plastic.I`ve thought an aluminum or stainless one would be great.It seems the only upgraded material grilles are made in custom designs.
