I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
I would like to know how this was made. I think it's perfect.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
I have not seen this one. LMC does have some but not this. I like this one better than others I have seen but I am still a fan of the original 67-68 grill
good luck with the search

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
I wonder if the sizes are the same that instead of the tube grill using a 71-72 inner crate grill. That would look great too.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
The Thicker Grilles were sold a long time ago. I remenber the manager of a brake shop I used had a '72 4X4 Suburban with a grille like that. He placed his Fog Lights behind the grille and they shined thru, even though you couldn't see them.

If only it had hideaway headlights like the first gen RS Camaro.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
That SHOULD look good, but the first thing that came to mind as soon as I saw it was the Chevy Chase wagon.
Great idea, wrong headlight covers.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
Isn’t the oem 67-68 grill the most sought after and desirable grill out of all 67-72 C10s (that was always my impression and that’s unbiased as I have a ‘69).
I would keep stock. Good luck to you either way.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
in my opinion it is but I might be biased...

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
I'm biased, too. I have a '67 K/10 Sub, a '68 C/10 and the Suburban's old grille -- bent up, from hitting a deer. But still good steel if a talented bodyman took his hand to it.
The '71 is a GMC. And I prefer the chrome steel crucifonm to the plastic egg crate of the same-year Chevy.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
Yes they are the best looking grill of all. I would never replace with anything else, would be a downgrade.

Re: I just found the most awesome grill for a 67-68
I have 2 C-10's. Both long wide beds. I prefer the 67-68 grill, even if there's a 6 banger behind them!!!
