    Need a fresh grill? A LWB and SWB grill for sale...

    These have both been nicely restored.
    First up is a 66-68 SWB grill that has been completely disassembled and sand blasted. The vertical aluminum stays have been replaced with steel and the collars have been painted. The aluminum acorn nuts have been replaced with stainless. The horizontal vanes have been starightened and the sides painted and tops polished. Leaf guards are freshly painted black. All studs are new...and just a tad longer. Fresh aluminum rivets hold the 1-2 and 12-13 vanes and leaf guards in place. Lots of hours involved here. $400
    Next is a 72-73 2.4 aluminum grill. The horizontal vanes have been straightened, aligned and top layer of annodizing and paint had been manually removed. The sides of the vanes remain black as well as the vertical vane supports (nice contrast). The vanes have been meticulously sanded. I like the current partially polished look, althought with little effort the vanes could easily be fully polished. All studs are solid and original length. I have removed the badge to complete the restoration process. Will fit 70-73. $365 Badge available seperately $35
    Prices obo plus shipping.
