'72 Grille won't fit
When I bought my '72 C20 it didn't have a grille at all. I've bought two different used grilles that both had minor dings and can't get either one to fit between the fenders at the bottom. The front end was primered so I'm thinking it has been replaced.
Are there some spacers missing or something? Anyone else have this problem?

Re: '72 Grille won't fit
WELCOME... JUST LOOSEN UP THE BOLTS THAT HOLD YOUR FENDERS TO THE RADIATOR SUPPORT. MAYBE 1/8" ON EACH SIDE. THIS WILL ALOW YOU TO SPREAD THE FENDERS A LITTLE & SLIP YOUR GRILL IN PLACE. THEN RETIGHTEN THEM.
