Hey guys i wanted to show off my 20 dollar grill i pulled from a junkyard near my house. they was fixing to crush this truck and i just happed to stop buy and ask how much they wanted for the grill and he told me 20 bucks. I am very happy even though its black still its in good shape and for 20 dollars it cant be beat.

Grill Came off from a Nite Model truck and it went into the crusher right after i got the grill off from it. there really wasnt much left except the cab without doors and the bed. there was no rear suspension just the front suspension.
