FS Splash apron - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

kaleido · 02-28-2005, 10:17 AM

I am in Texas and picked up an original splash apron at a recent swap meet. It is in good shape with some surface rust on the underside and missing a sigle bracket that should not affect its use. Should clean up nicely. I was going to swap out my aftermartket one and later decided it was better to leave things as they were. Asking $35 + postage.

I think they are the same for GMC and Chevy. I will try to post some photos tonight It is for a 47 to 54 AD truck.

grille surrounds are different for chevy and gmc's.....this is what makes the gmc's harder to find in that the grille surround comes all the way down and through the splash pan. the splash pan is notched for the grille "bars" as well as shaped differently for the curvature of the front end sheet-metal. the chevy was notched also but it is notched differently for their grille surround.

i know,i know.......!!
