Re: Reproduction Grills
Going to shift gears here from reproduction grilles to reproduction parts...This spring I picked up a real nice driver quality OEM grille for my 70.....Just couldn't wait to remove what was already on the truck.....Anyhow the truck has an original L/F fender and an aftermarket R/F fender. I struggled for quite some time to get that OEM grille to fit the A/M R/F fender, the bolt holes wouldn't line up so I had to elongate the holes and use a pry bar to stretch the fender & grille at the end there's approx 3/8 space between the grille & the fender...On the left side it fits & looks perfectly.....I guess the decision would render on 'driver quality' vs 'show' quality....My preference is OEM despite the flaws.....
