Howdy.
Anyone have a grill guard that might be willing to discuss installation & specs of it?

Thanks!

Rick

I have two of the same type. I doubt it is a ford factory item, but period correct. Guessing Western Auto or other aftermarket type. I must have some pics of it. I doubt I will use my extra one, but it's a little rough as is. There will be pics of it for sure if you go to youtube and search, "Summer's End, Brograss". These young brother musicians used my pickup for a great video and lots of grill shots.
