Dentsides get most of the press, but we've got nothing but love for this beautiful Bumpside Ford.

I OWN a '71 and that grille isn't a '71!

That is a '72 grille.

1971


1972
The grille changed slightly to four rectangular sections on each side of the center vertical bar.

The grille frame is the same 1971/72 F100/350, the plastic grille inserts are either 1971 or 1972 and these are right & left specific.

1970 grille frame and plastic inserts are 1970 only.

This pictured truck also has the wrong tail lamp bezels. These are the type used with upper/lower tailgate mouldings.

Beautiful truck, though "Restored" it ain't. Somebody failed vocabulary. Good try, though.
