$123 July 2019, Free ship.
Chrome accent grill is out now. 190, free ship.

Yeah, this is the grille I have on its way now. I was just curious as I hadn't yet taken off my own grill yet. I'm all good now and I won't paint things myself because I am trying to get as much original parts as I can. Thanks guys!

Not as bad as I thought!

I opted to restore my grill, used sandable primer to fill in the sand blown pitting, then silver color paint for wheels. New bowtie and boom, looked pretty good!

Fellas,
Glad I went with the whole new grille, bow tie foil emblem (comes with grille) and I bought a new "350" emblem. Turned out great and it was nice that it came with some screws and new retainer clips seen as I couldn't locate them anywhere.

Years ago, our site store used to sell the entire 73-74 replacement grille - in both chrome and silver versions.  Mine is still sitting in my closet, awaiting installation on my ‘73.  Not sure why Chris took it out of the catalog; I expect either he or Vile could tell you.

Nice! Does anyone know a good place to get metal not plastic headlight bezels for my 73
