Let's see Belair...the last time I owned a '70 Chevelle was in 1978, so I'd say it's been a while since I paid enough attention to Chevelle parts to notice one

Don't know yet Rick, he's getting me pics tomorrow.

Thanks Supercarkid

NOS is getting harder and harder to find...these clowns on E Bay are calling the GM restoration parts NOS now...it's tough to wade thru the crap stuff from real NOS....if you found one snap it up...Joe, 200 bucks was cheap for a true NOS grille IMO.

OK, Mark, I helped find your seat material at SMS, and now your grille. You're gonna owe me big time before your done Check gmpartsdirect.com. They're showing the 70 Chevelle grille, part #3956117, still available. Price is $135.56 plus S/H.

Thanks again for the SMS lead Rainer...I do appreciate it I'll check out the GM resto grille vs the one I've found and see what the difference is.

Mark:
I have to agree. $200 for a true NOS would be a buy. I don't have any experience with the repro GM piece, but buy the NOS if it is anything close to reasonable - there won't be any more!

Soap box: There are some repro parts that are very, very good. The problem is, they are few and far between and it is hard to know if it correct until you receive it. Most parts are fine for the common cars and drivers, but for a COPO, LS6, Z16, etc., I have to have the right parts! I used almost all NOS or restored the originals on my 18k mile LS6.

Want to link sites, Mark?
