I have a question......, the bezels...am I wrong or shouldn't they be black? Just don't want any issues when you sell this. Nice looking piece ready to put on....riveting those end pieces is a pain!

I edited about the grille...you can see the raised portions on it in the picture but according to others that could be NOS since gm started making them all look like 70's at some point just like the aftermarket does.....

The center is flat egg crate no number on it. Bezels are just anodized aluminum no color.

I have a question too. Did you rivet this piece on or was installed when you bought it? I have a NOS grill too and it doesn't have this piece. Thanks and TTT for you.

Gorgeous!!! Boy, would I like one like that.

As stated above, original bezels are black. They are also steel, not aluminum. The bezels could, however, be NOS and what GM supplied originally with this unit if it was produced in 1971 or later since I doubt they kept making bezels from steel after the 71s came out with aluminum bezels.

update the 2nd back brace on the drivers side that is the support for the honey comb is CRACKED on the back side. Once installed you will never see it but it is damaged. So with the news I have dropped price to 1350 obo. 2nd pic from bottom you can see the brace has a fine crack in it right ion the middle. It is such a fine break I looked at this many times and never noticed it!!

The metal brackets do not come pre-installed. Just as the inner grill does not come pre-installed. They are all separate parts with different part numbers. I had to rivet the bracket on my NOS grille.

Re: NOS 69-70 Chevy truck grill COMPLETE
 
Ah, thank you for the clarification on the bracket. I have an NOS outer and an NOS inner now. Are the rivets for those end brackets anything special or just regular ole aluminum rivets?

Re: NOS 69-70 Chevy truck grill COMPLETE
 
I used a combintation of aluminum rivets and stainless steel capped rivet bolts. I can't remember which ones went where. My grille is in storage. I'd have to check for you.

I used the rivet screws. In my opinion, they are the only way to go. I don't believe the originals were pop rivets. Here's an eBay link to them: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevy-grille...sories&vxp=mtr

That's what I used. I did use pop rivets in certain areas due to size issues. I can't remember why, though. My memory isn't what it used to be.

Thanks for the tip. The grille on my truck has what appear to be aluminum pop rivets, but I know it's not original.
