My 80 Silverado swb has a inside hood release . I am trying to buy a 80 Silverado lwb this week as a parts truck and the grill in it looks to be good .I don't need the grill it will be for sale if you need it.

 

[74propu]

Oh and I found out the hard way the grille is 79-80 only

 

[Rusty Nail]

Them grilles r serious bidnezz! $$$ Gotta want one with the bowtie pritty bad!
I've got $85 + paint in mine and it's a truck grille....
There is a '73-'74 Blazer grille here that needs a home.

I had much trouble trying to find a 79 grille. I am still unsure if I got the right one but it came off a 79. I also bought a 1980 grille with an '80 only part number and it looks the same to me. I didn't put them next to each other but that's my recollection. I really like the earlier GMC grilles personally.

Omg LOL.

What a knob!

Do you think it's a good or a bad thing that we didn't tell him what a bad deal windshield rust is? Why would anyone list all of the stuff they are trippin on when listing a truck for sale?
Wtf.
Good luck denis, you knob.
I can hear him now..." it's too much work. It's too much money. I don't have the time."

Nostalgia my ass.

He posted it for sale before he posted here? People...!
At least we had some fun and got some good infos together. He prolly thinks we're all crazy but I wonder what he was after? $3800? Not a chance pal.

I guess he got taken for a ride. $3800....more like half that if the windshield frame ain't trashed. Plus needs tires? Interior trashed? Hold your breath for $1900. Lol.

Maybe there's an explanation for it? I hate to discourage a fella but this deal is strange.

I don't think we were being mean. You have to bust balls as our Northeastern amigos say!

Unfortunately not everyone has the superior sense of humor like we do.
