62' c10 grill removal

[Bullett]

Need to remove my grill for my repaint. Is the easiest way to do this to remove the headlight/headlight pod that the grill is riveted to or to drill out the rivets that hold the grill on? I didn't really study it yet but looks to be easier to remove the headlight pods? Thanks....

I know 1964 C10 grill simply unbolts as a unit with headlights and wiring in place, requires no rivet removal.

Disconnect headlight 2 wire plug near voltage regulator (green and tan wires).

remove 3 bolts from under fender and 1-2 though grille.

lift off.

Ok, I suspect that is what I need to do. I guess it almost seemed to easy. Thanks.

4 bolts per side. Three from the back side of the grill support below the radiator support in the wheel well. 7/16" bolts uses 1/2" socket. One you access from above. Remove the wing panel from the top of the grill support to radiator support. I think that one is a 3/8" bolt needing a 9/16" socket. Unplug the three prong connector passing through the radiator support next to the horn relay and voltage regulator.
