Re: Stock grill color
We've had a lot of good discussion about the 68 grills over the years. I don't think we've ever come to any hard and fast rules if a base (non Custom/CST) '68 should have a silver face with painted trim or a white face with chrome trim.
My best guess is there were assembly plant differences or a production run change. It's been a bit of an enigma.
That period picture that factorystock posted is the only 68 silver face with chrome that I've noticed. Pretty cool old picture and it looks like Silver/chrome face 68 might have been available.
