Let's see those egg crates. All 71-72s and imitations too.

Guys and gals I am sick of being truckless but am not quite ready to start my hunt for a nice patina 71-72. To get in the mood lets see those egg crate grills.

Re: Let's see those egg crates. All 71-72s and imitations too.

Here's a pic of my '71 4x4. Every one on board here has their favorite grill styles and I'm partial to the '71/'72 grill but I like'm all from 67 to 72. Not patina paint, was complete re-paint about 4 years ago.

I love how the last pic has the guy in the cab acting freaked out. You can't put a price on good humor. *Sorry about the truck though. Was it fixed? Did you get to eat the cows?
