Well that throws my theory out the window.

That poor Nite . Its too bad they are already a rare truck as it is. Just a shame to see these old beuts ending up in junkyards.

they had a lightning that was red but it was crushed from the cab roof into the dash. it was missing the rims. just sad to see. He was crushing a bronco, 88 f150, 92 nite, 94 lighting, 3 88 chebbies and two F250s. all of them was pretty much stripped of anything worth wild and then crushed.

That looks like a good find to me. Too bad a Nite had to die though. I agree, that will be a huge improvement over the green one.

the NITE trucks like mine are getting so hard to find, and now another one got crushed. i saved mine from the crusher...i only paid 100 4 it....$100....the said give me something and get it off my driveway....it needed a little tlc but welllllllllllllllll worth the money. its a good buy my friend. if i lived closer id offer you my chrome one in mine. the black trim on mine was broken so i had to replace it. best part was though that i bought a parts truck 4 only $300 that only needed a tranny.. again great deal

it looks good on your truck. but my grill only looked good if you was ten feet away. i had some major runs and it was just nasty. However i dont know if the black grill will look right with my white truck. well it only has to work untill have the truck painted and at the time i will have the grill and the headlight surronds painted body color.

Is there something I am missing? I just don't get the green grille look. Does it mean something?
