Ok so i managed to to find me a 'steel' of a deal on a 67 steel grille!
$40 can u believe that?! :woohoo:
and hes got an aluminum one i may make an offer on.
its only got one dent, looks easy to punch out.
I've got one here somewhere, I think I paid like $40.00-$50.00 for it.
Let me see, I think it's here somewhere.

I didn't photograph the ones that were in my game room at that time.
I have since sold most of that pile.
I added some more from 67-69 since.
Most are good driver grilles "as is", however I like to re-condition them, then polish them.
Keeps me busy and out of trouble.
I think the one that CraigerF100 found, is a remarkable find. When you can find a 67 grille with headlight bezels for $40.00 you done good.
When I heard Dennis Carpenter was going to re-pop the 67-69 grilles I started corresponding with them to get the "skinny" on everything. here's their last email to me:
WE ARE IN THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE FOR MAKING THE DIES FOR '68/69 GRILLES, NOT '67. WHEN COMPLETE, THE MANUFACTURING WILL TAKE PLACE WITH OUR ASSOCIATED COMPANIES IN CHINA. WE DO NOT EXPECT THESE TO BE AVAILABLE FOR SALE UNTIL APPROXIMATELY APRIL 2014. IT IS TOO FAR OUT FOR A PRICE TO BE SET.
Dennis Carpenter Ford Reproductions Carpenter Industries, Inc.
So what does that mean? The 67 grilles will only go up in price. So if you have 67 grilles in either steel or aluminum, hang on to them.

Reason: proper spacing and color

Do you have an extra set of aluminum headlight doors? Driver quality it's fine.
The grille I have on my truck now is painted and I like the look but I found a nice aluminum grille a couple of weeks ago for $25 but the headlight doors are fubar. I straightened them the best I could but they still need a lot of work.
I'd like to.be able to change the look once in a while.

No headlight doors. When I recondition a grille the headlight doors go with the grille. Passenger side headlight doors are the hardest to find. For some reason the passenger side gets damaged the most.
I'm always in the market to buy passenger side headlight bezels/doors.
