They are nearly impossible to find, but it's real easy to make one, and no-one will ever know it's not original. All you need is a '67 grille, tin snips, a pop-rivet gun, pop rivets, and the fog light brackets. Paint it all dark charcoal and you're done!

Thanks Arlie;I am aware that you can make it from a 1967 grille but there are maybe some parts like the attatchment to the hood lock brackets on radiator support according to what I have read.
R&B Classics sells a good reproduction too. Since I am not in too much of a hurry I will see if I can find a good used original but I know its a long shot

That one is for the regular 1968 model Mustang. The GT/CS is made from a 1967 Mustang grille without the brackets.

Thanks for the e bay link!

Mike Jewell is making the grills and they are exact in every way. You can not tell between the original and the one that Mike is making. Send "Something Special" a message and I am sure that he will get back to you. You won't be disappointed.

Cheers,

Ron

Are you looking to sell them or just hanging on to them for future posibilities? Not that I'm interested but many may be.
