grill....

I was just curious what years of grill will fit my 1970 ford f-100? Mine was painted by an old owner. Its a steel grill on it right now, which leads me to believe that its not the original. Since the part list on the website is a 2 peice. Thanks for all your comments.

The 1970 grille should have a shell, two inserts and two headlight doors. I think the inserts are plastic. I do know that the 1970 inserts should have a very small grid pattern (opposed to the '71/'72 that are more open in design). 1967-1969 grilles don't have any inserts. They are basically a shell and headlight doors.

Only the waffle looking grilles(70)will fit in your shell.
Unless someone put spacers behind them which would indicate a '71-2 shell.

Shells will interchange from -67-72 as John said.

I am trying to find someone that makes 71 grills with the polished stainless piece in the middle.... Anyone know of any places that are making these???? Dennis Carpenter was supposed to be bringing these on line, but I don't think to date, he has...
