im looking for a nice grill. doesnt have to be perfect i will be painting it.

apple valley ca.

 

I guess the year does'nt matter, So any steel grille?

 

Year is not real important

 

I have two diffrent year trucks and the grills are different for each one sdo you might deside what year you want might help

 

Year should be important. I have steel grilles from 56 through 69 So I take it any year I ship to you would be ok?

 

Awhile back you inquired about a 71 grille, No steel grilles for 71 that I'm aware of. What year steel grille do you want? We can not read your mind.

 

I'm alittle confused. This is in the 67-72 forum so any steel grill outside those years won't work for me.

My truck is a 71 and I did post about the 71 grill. My plans have changed and I want to paint the grill to match the truck and I would like it in steel. I looked on the fortification site at the 67-69 grills and I don't really see a huge difrence.

Maybe someone could post a pic or explain the differences?


If you got one maybe send a pic and we could talk. I'd prefer a local pickup because I'm sure the shipping would really suck

Thanks for all the help guys

 

I'm gonna need the headlight doors to match

 

1970/72 F100/350's came with anodized aluminum headlamp doors, anodized aluminum grille shells with R/L plastic grille inserts.

1967/69 F100/350 Custom Cab/Ranger came with anodized aluminum grilles and anodized aluminum headlamp doors.

Only 1967/69 F100/350 Standard Cabs came with painted steel grilles, painted steel headlamp doors.

1967 grille is 1967 only, 1968/69's use the same steel grille. Steel headlamp doors are the same 1967/69.

1967/69: The parking lamps are different than 1970/72, mount into the grille below the headlamps.

1967/69: The stone shield that is located below the grille is dished at either end to allow for grille clearance.

1970/72: The stone shield is different at either end than 1967/69, as this is where the 1970/72 parking lamps bolt to.

Consider painting the anodized aluminum grille/headlamp doors you have now, instead of going thru all the labor and expense of swapping in 1967/69 parts.

 

One of the main reason I want to swap from the 71 to the 67-69 grill is because I like the look of the parking light on the 67-69 setup.

Right now the truck is a cab and chassis only, today I will be putting in the crown Vic ifs, so the extra work is not a concern at this time

So with this info ND posted, I will need the stone guard aswell.


Thank you everyone
