Cool Grill

Does any one know where I can get the parts to build this grill? I saw it earlier this year at the Cache Valley Cruise-in, I think the owner is from Salt Lake City. I believe it is a C60 grill that has been modified and partially chromed. Looks better in person very clean truck.

Re: Cool Grill

this coe is the only chrome one I have seen on a big truck so far...
it is a little different , it has chevrolet stamped in the top bar, instead of the external letters like the c60-c80.

you might find a chrome one in a c60-c80 fire truck.

I put one of these grilles in my 65, I have wanted to mount the letters in the center, but have never got around to it.
you do need to change the headlight mounts to a c10 style grille, the c60-c80 mounts flat, and the c10-20-30 mount at an angle.

Re: Cool Grill

Looks like they used a aftermarket chrome grille and painted the center black and added the letters

Re: Cool Grill

It is a nice truck. Looks like it has been shaved (bumper bolts, door handles, no wipers, no turn signals, and no mirrors). The headlight rings are welded and smoothed into the grill. Center of grill blacked out, big wheels, and slammed. I like it.
