Re: DANG! Check out the new grilles from LMC

Here is a direct link

How can you tell it is a 73/74 grill? I can't see if it is recessed or not...and how can it physically fit 73-80...with the core support/bracket differences and such?

Does look cool, just wish I knew more.

Re: DANG! Check out the new grilles from LMC

It looks cool, but it doesn't look recessed to me either Jeff. I don't know how it would fit the 73-80. I would think that it would likely be for the 75-80 and would have to do some modifications to make it fit a 73-74, but I could be wrong. ...Joe

It looks like from this pic they created a universal style mounting. I do like it, but it appears that it is not recessed.

Re: DANG! Check out the new grilles from LMC

DAMN!!!! That plus the GMC logo would look sweet on my truck. Too bad I don't have $200 hanging around. Hopefully they are still selling it by the end of the summer.

Re: DANG! Check out the new grilles from LMC

It is a sharp grille, But a shame it's not recessed as the 73/74....

That's OK, I got my NOS off Ebay.
