WIW GMC headlight buckets

I found a mint original radiator core support at the salvage yard, only thing is it's a GMC, so I'm going to modify it by removing the headlight buckets to work in my 68.

What is a set of GMC headlight buckets worth, since these aren't currently being reproduced. If they're worth much, I can carfully remove them, so someone else can use them.

Buckets where the headlights mount to, or the bucket trim piece??

I bought a set of both at the swap meet for 20 dollars.. Buckets and ring covers... if that helps...

The actual buckets that are spot welded to the core support.

Re: WIW GMC headlight buckets

They aren`t worth anything w/o that core support.They reproduce the Chevy ones and not the GMC ones.There are more bad GMC core supports w/good headlight buckets than the other way around.The buckets don`t really go bad.
