WTB factory grill/brush guard - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

jay_shy · 07-10-2009, 05:39 PM

I am looking for a factory grill/brush guard for my 68 chevy. Looking for one that is not dented or bent. If it needs blasted or painted that is fine. Let me know what you have and your price. Shipping would be nice but I am willing to go a reasonable distance to pick up. You can post pics here or I can PM you my email.

Here is a few pictures of what I am looking for:

Not for sure but I may have one I picked up years ago for my '71 4x4 and then decided not to use it. Haven't looked at it for quite a while, seems to me it has some sort of expended metal mesh on it. I'm at work right now, will look later this evening when I get home. Problem being how to ship such an item to make it feasible cost wise. I live in a little "Po-dunk" USA town with only UPS and USPS to ship by. Will let you know later today or tomorrow on if I still have it.

Sorry Jay_Shy but the grill guard I have is most likely a home or shop built item. Looks very similar but does not have the bolt hole tabs at each end and the center brackets are quite "stout". If at all interested I can get a pic or two perhaps tomorrow. Sorry to get your hopes up.

Thanks for looking guys. Someone has to have one for sale.

I have cash burning a hole in my pocket.

Seems to me that someone could make some serious cash if they would/could fabricate a brush/grill guard for the early model chevy's.... I wish I had the talent.
If anyone knows of someone who makes custom grill guards etc. for the early Blazers, please post it. I've got a 72 Blazer and would like a grill guard. Wayne in S.W. Lower Michigan.

Good luck

Copper116 · 08-08-2011, 07:17 AM
