Here are a couple:

http://www.classicparts.com/1989-93-...tinfo/61-2926/
http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cd/full.aspx?Page=71

The first is listed for $79.95. I doubt the quality of LMC's is any better, but they want $129.95 for theirs. And I looked on http://www.car-part.com (search 1990/Chevy Truck 1500 series/Grille, then "Composite Headlamps, Painted") to see if there were any in a junkyard near Leesburg, NJ, but it looks like the closest one would be Philadelphia. That's a long way to go for one that might be in poor condition when you get there. Hope this helps!!

Now that we're in our 5th year on this sport truck thread, I'd like to thank everyone for your contributions. Some really good information has surfaced and it's been fun looking at all the neat examples.

Here's to even more good stuff in 2012.

Right now, the centres are mounted on the steel winter wheels, but they'll be going back on the alloy Tahoe wheels in the spring.

Interesting, I didn't know the sports ever got the blue interior...I always thought my blue interior would be the biggest obstacle to me building a sport clone...

Black one for sale in Ontario. Not mine.

The kilometres works out to about 190,000 miles. Pricey.

The front side markers on that truck are amber . Mine are clear . Guessing the amber ones ar original . Also my 91 has the rainbow dash , this one has the needle dash . Wonder what it would take to swap mine to needles ?

your steering column mount is different..the 95-up with air bags are modular columns..the 94 back are the standard gm column..

It can be done...Would like to see pics of one that has been swapped over to see what they did with the ower trim panel...

That Sport has a 94+ grille swap, looks good.

Canada really is a different world; I would never put my home address on a Craigslist ad!!

Cool thread, glad I found it. I have a 90 Sport350. I've gone the custom route. There are a few things I have made sure to keep. The air dam/fog lights, steering wheel, short buckets.

Here's some information straight from Chevrolet publications. This applies to the 1989 Sport Equipment Package (BYP).

The above post relates to the 1989 Sport truck.

Now, here's some interesting info on the 1993 Sport. As was pointed out by BIG MAC several pages back (post #166), the 1993 Sport was a sportside (stepside) only model - 2x4 or 4x4.

And strangely, the front end was a W/T design while the interior was based on the topline Silverado.

And for those who asked, yes blue was definitely available on Summit White Sports.

Well after my friend has been riding in my sport truck he kinda feel in luv with it. He's been watching for one to pop up and finally found one.. motor overheated and is pumping water out the tail pipe a couple of feet. It has 45K original miles! appears like its all stock except the new exhaust. No power windows.. no power door locks..no oil cooler lines.. and its split bench with a 5-speed. He got it for 1300bucks.. I seen another awhile back with a 4.3V6 motor and was questioning its originality. I was reading that the sport package motors did come with V6's. I recently added a MSD ignition to mine dual condensor fans,cup holder,and roll pan.Both trucks my friends and mine were attempted to be stolen from previous owners. I havent been on here in quite sometime but WOW thread is still going!! right on!!:metal:
