I appreciate any help here, and I apologize if this post should be in the Swap Meet rather than here.

This old truck sure looks neat, but where are the heated seat controls?!?

Check this one out ebay grille It might be more than you bargained for, but they are harder to find than the chevrolet grilles of the same years. good luck! ........g | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | g - would be a shame to part such a good lookin survivor just for the grille! - the GMC verson have never been reproduced, Paul, and good used ones are virtually nonexistent - never could find a replacement for my dinged one, so had it straightened enuff to be 'presentable' - prolly yer cheapest option too, if it's at all recoverable

Man, that's probably going to be hard to find. Did you try any of the other Links on the Links Page? A lot of the other vendors carry used parts as well as Repop stuff. Maybe Marsha at American Classic can find you one -- she does wish lists.
Good luck!

They were being done for Vern Toedtli - he sells grills, emblems and moldings for '37-'54 GM cars and trucks. I have to tell you - they were way nicer than anything I had ever seen, he takes a lot of time and does the picking and polishing himself and relies on the chrome shop for copper, nickle and final chrome only. You can call him (360) 892-0620 or perhaps catch him at his son's? business [email protected]Good luck . . . Ken
Life's short - don't waste it.
