That's EXACTLY the looking I'm going for with my Suburban.
Truth be told, mine is really a '62, but with the hood, it's just easier to tell everyone it's a '61. I like the Chevy emblems in the pods, but I like the '60 grill better.
I've got a straight, solid painted '60 grill in it now, and an excellent chrome '60 grill, and will send the hood inserts out to have them chromed when I do the paint and bodywork on the truck.

I have a mint set of '60 inserts (primed) if you want to put the "right" ones in your truck!
