$550 plus a $200 core charge. probably not a bad deal?? I wonder what qualifies as a "Core" ? something perfect and dent free I suppose??

someone should call them and find out more details since I doubt you could have your perfect grill chromed for that price????

 

It'll cost you $300 to $400 to get a good one chromed - if you can find one good enough. Something tells me 51 PanelMan will have one tomorrow!

 

That doesn't seem like to bad a price to have one chromed, although I have never had anything chromed. Yet....
I have been in the process of organizing and cleaning the garage lately, I thought the only thing multiplying in my garage were Mice but apparently not!



I suppose I could part with one if someone is still looking.

 

I guess one can never have too many grilles, huh?

 

Wait, did you say you have a 7, 5, & 3 tooth grills? thats exactly how many teeth I have on the wall, so you essentially had to use that many grills to get your custom ones setup. So yes, I guess you would be right, "you can never have too many Grills"

cheers

EDIT; here is a set of grill teeth just listed on Ebay today

True!

I was actually able to find extra teeth on e-bay as well. I bought the two extra grilles and then two auctions with a set 3 teeth each.

With the full front tilt, I brazed the mounting bolts to the headlight buckets of each and wired them with the same quick disconnect electrical plug. So I can undo the wing nuts holding the grile on, drop it off the truck, and put one of the others on in about 5 minutes.

I didn't cut the valance to hold the extra teeth, but rather shaved them off to sit VERY close on top of it. That took a lot of patience and a good set of files.

I like the 5 tooth the best. But for every piece of my truck that I have customized, I have a 100% stock replacement that can be changed out easily - including the interior/dash.

Here's the grille pics again. The five tooth is in the post above on the truck. In this last picture note the hood up and the wing nuts behind the wind breaks holding on the grille (object in the front is the sun visor, and YES 4 Horns!):

 

OK.... Might have been a few too many frosties.... I'll stand by my buddy Bobby... Forgive him Lord for he know not What he do......

They not only add teeth.... they chrome them...... I'm speechless.....

 

Seems like most of the people I see with chromed teeth are either in prison, or are a James Bond villain.

 

There not teeth gentlemen,,,,,,There "Dagmars!!"

 

easier to clean manure spreaders.

 

Saw these on E-bay this morning:
