Thread: 1937 Chevy Pickup Grille

Tweet

I am currently building a 37 chevy 1/2 ton pickup. I bouth it in pieces. I have an original grille (in pretty good shape). I also have a fiberglass front grille shell (doghouse). My problem is that the grille doesn't fit in the shell. I know the truck and car grilles are different, and I don't know which I have.

I am hoping that the previous owner purchased a truck grille shell, and acquired the grille which is actually for the sedan. I will buy a new truck grille, but I don't want to buy the truck grille if I actually have a sedan front grille shell.

Is there anyone out there that can tell me how to tell the two apart??? Any info would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks, Scott

Scott I wiah I could help you, but I have the origional grill and Shell. I'll give you a number to call as these people sell everything from 37-54. Pnone#800-999-2438 or wep page www.chevsofthe40s.com

Thanks for the information. I thought I talked to chevs of the forties, but I didn't. Spoke to other places and got some good info, but none to make a positive match. I sent an email to chevs of the forties yesterday. Guess we will see. I did confirm that the truck grille is longer. Chevy 37, If I could get a measurement, it may solve the problem. Let me know, and I will post a soultion in case anyone else needs the same info someday. Thanks Again

This is the best I can give you. I have a special shroud over the bottom of my grill which is a pain to take off.

THANKS!!! I don't want you taking anything apart. I will check these with what I have. It should be close.
