Repro grille ready to install ?

[felviner]

Does anyone know if there is available to buy a ready modified grille or no one does that . If not any suggestions where to buy a good repro 67 grille

Thanks Eric

Do you have the fog light brackets?

 

[felviner]

Fog lights are pedestal mounted

I think my question didn't come out the right way
I am looking for a ready modified repro grille for the 68 GT/CS
We were told there is someone who makes them but no idea who it is or if its true .

 

[Mosesatm]

Even though the fog lights are pedestal mounted there should be brackets attached to the grille so if you're looking for a correct grille you'll need to attach the brackets to a '67 grille or have someone do the work for you.

Somethingspecial (Mike) was going to build and sell correct grilles but I don't know where he is on that project.

If you don't want to install the brackets any '67 grille from any Mustang parts vendor will work but if you remove the braces from a '67 grille and don't add the fog light brackets the grille will be weak.

Vendors are R&R Classics, NPD (National Parts Depot), Mustangs Unlimited, Mustangs Plus, etc.

Like so many of my projects I have been working on, this one is on hold until my foot injury allows me to continue. I have to perfect the fog light brackets before I can offer any grilles for sale. I was hoping to have some for the June show. Eric, If you can wait, I will put you on the list. I have several folks ahead of you.

Eric, Does your grille have the fog light brackets already? Why do you have to replace the grille? Can you take a picture of your grille and send it to me?

Mike
I don't really have to replace it yet its not in the best of conditions but it does the job ,but in the future I want to do a restoration so I want to statr collecting as many parts as I can, when I'm back home I'l send you some pics cos at the moment I am at work in Brazil & I go home at the end of the month .

How does one get on said list?

 

[somethingspecial]

Lists, So many to choose from.

Depends on what list you want to be on Joe. LOL. I'll put you on my list. Do you still have your brackets?

Thanks, Mike. For some reason the brackets didn't make it. Let me know what you need from me.

Mike,
I would also like to be added to the (good) list if possible when you start selling the grills. I do not have the fog light brackets.
Thanks!

What is the proper color for the top grille bolts? Are either of the ones shown in these photos correct?

Are these the correct bolts?

Thanks

I can't believe nobody ever recreated those brackets. I bet a good sheetmetal person could make these.

 

[franklinair]

Right or wrong, I used the silver cad plated bolts. I like the contrast.
If I had a sample Marchal bracket, I'd sure like to try & duplicate.

Delta Bay Mustang makes the brackets and I have used them exclusively in the past. I just don't like the price, so I ventured to make them myself. Slow process for me though. If you need a pair, I highly recommend them, great product.

Mike add me to the list also. no brackets so i need those too

I gave up looking for light brackets for my GTCS so I made my own. It took me a day to make a template and both brackets. Painted them the next. I used pics from the book and this site to figure the size and bends. Used a pan brake box and a press with a large bearing for the dimple. Also made a grill out of a 67 by cutting out the holes for the bracket to pop through. I'm thankfull for the Lucas light help from Mr. Moses and Mr. Teets for the correct mounting hardware. Now the front looks complete! I'm trying to load pics but can't because of my illiterate computer skills. lol
