c50 or c60 front clip fitment
5 Attachment(s)
Has anyone tried bolting on a c50 or c60 front clip onto our c10s? I really like the taller grill recess and taller big truck grills. I don't know about the flares, but maybe graft a little of the c10 fenders in.. Looks like it would fit, just wondering if anyone has.

I know someone on here used the grill off of a truck like the red and put it on a c10 but that is all I've seen. If you look around I'd bet yould find it.

I always thought that a set of those front fenders would look cool on a 4x4 with some modification to the rear of the flare. Then do some type of flare mod to the rear fenders.

I am sure it would bolt on , it is the same cab and hood...
I always thought those flares would look good around a set of 24"'s |
Re: c50 or c60 front clip fitment
I got a good grill off of one of those style trucks thinking it would go on a c10 but it dosent, if you modify it then it will work, but not a direct bolt on for a 62 anyway. I bought it for only 10 bucks, so no big loss.

I think the earlier grille 60-63 is too tall to fit in the 1/2 ton support, the 64-6 will fit, you have to take the letters off, and change the headlight/grille support brackets to 1/2 ton style.
mine, and another: |

Thanks for the pics! Those grills look tough. I was actually thinking of streching the front grill surround and running the full size big truck grill. Anyone know of any of these style grills for sale?

I saw this same approach on a mud-truck here in Oregon, though it was done to a (gasp!) Ford.
The thing had 44' Swampers on it, and the owner had bolted on a '70s F-700 cab, with a flatbed. It looked pretty cool, given the fact the tires were proportionate to the fender-flares. And that was a Ford. Think of how much better it would look on a properly dropped GM product. |

In order to put the heavy truck nose on a light duty truck, you'll have to drop the front of the frame to accomodate the taller grill panel.
