Hello gents,

I recently snagged a prime '69 short bed step side GMC that is begging for some upgrades.

I'm wondering if a Chevy grill will swap in with out much problem?

Thanks for your suggestions.

I don't know the specific answer to your question, but you had better watch out - you're angering the GMC gods... grin :p

If you have a real truck, why disguise it?

Hey YoDaddy--

Ya need to be really careful here about inciting the stretch motor crowd--these jimmi guys get pretty bent out of shape about anybody makin fun of their engines consistently crackin heads frown or torkling 'em about their unsightly grills. grin grin grin

It's pretty common for folks with GMC trucks to disguise 'em as the more popular Chevy--prolly fit that stylish grill right in... grin grin grin

Heh, heh....I understand.

Actually....I'm after a custom grill, kinda billet style....everything seems made for Chevy, tho.

So I guess what I shoulda asked is "Will an after market Chebby grill fit my REAL TRUCK?" cool

You have to change the whole front cap, radiator support & fenders are different. Core support is GMC only(4 lites)& fenders are the same as 68 Chevy. Brian
