More 67 questions.

Was the grill trim painted white with all color combinations? Was there a chrome grill option stock?
What designated a a upper class truck from a base model?

I want my truck to look like a base model truck with a few custom touches.

Re: More 67 questions.

In 68 some had the grille painted white, others silver, and others were body color. I think the grille was a different color only if you had the hood and eyebrow trim.

Re: More 67 questions.

Base trucks had the grille painted body color with painted trim in white AFAIK.

Arrow Re: More 67 questions.

as far as I know all the 67's that were not custom or cst had white grille trim and headlight rings and painted hubcaps ,
I have only seen the custom's and cst's with chrome bumper's and grille trim ,
but really I guess you could have ordered them with other mix of option's

I have alway's liked the poverty look myself ,,,

Re: More 67 questions.

That is one slick truck, 19673ontree. Do you have any more pictures? You gotta love the nice clean look of the base models. Those stylists spent a lot of time sculpting those body lines, why hide them with trim?

Re: More 67 questions.

Thats actually what I was wondering base models seam to always have white trim stock. I love the look of it.
Mine has ben painted a crappy brown at some point the truck was originally blue and it looks as thought the grill trim was white.

Thanks guys.
