Same as the rest of the truck. I swapped from the factory 65 hood that I had already painted.

Re: 60-66 hood and grille combos

Will a 4-5-6 chevy grille bolt on to a 63 chevy?

Chevrolet letter bar removed from top of grill and reattached in center opening. Everything rechromed and bar on letter bar blacked out. I saw this on another truck a few years back and loved the clean, simple look of it.
Sorry about the fire and water damaged grill surround, it hadn't been stripped and phosphated yet when I took this picture.

I am building a 62 C10 stepside, will a 64 grill with Chevrolet in black
letters printed on the top bar fit on a 62? The grill it came with is not a 62 grill but looks like a 64 which I never paid much attention too.

Re: 60-66 hood and grille combos

How hard would it be to swap from a 64-66 grill to a 61 4 light grill? Does it bolt to the core support the same? And probably just change the headlight harness?

Re: 60-66 hood and grille combos

The radiator core support is roughly the same, but the grill support is a little different from early to late trucks. The 64-66 uses three bolts per side, while the 60-61 uses four bolts. And I think the shape of the sheet metal is slightly different too. You can bolt it on though. I put a 60 grill onto my 64 and it works, but eventually I plan to swap on the correct grill support.

Re: 60-66 hood and grille combos

Here's mine, modified c60 grille with gmc hood. Figured I'd do something new.
