Well, I just put a reproduction grille in our 1950 3100. What a pain in the butt! I usually buy most parts from Chevy Duty and I have been very pleased with their quality and service. But i saw this new grille on ebay just before last christmas and I couldn't resist. saved about $100 and it looks great. The only trouble is it is about 1/2" wider than the original. Since I am just putting the truck back together, i had left all the bolts loose and I still had to shoehorn it in. It was a royal pain trying to get in in and lining up the bolt holes. Took days and I scratched my new paint, too. So I would suggest that you buy the expensive parts from a reputable dealer and pay the extra price. I have bought many older parts on ebay without a problem, but I don't think I will buy any new high dollar repro parts there anymore. And I would strongly suggest that you put the parking lights in the grille BEFORE you put the grille in. I had to take it out and start over...
unbroke.
