Hey I love the colour, is that Ford's Citric Acid, it's such a cool 70's shade. I was thinking about doing my ute the same colour..

Why? They are nearly identical, except for the center emblem (which is replaceable).

The metal grille is from a 1971-1973 Ute, Wagon or Sedan.

The coupe and ute grille are different, the colour combinations are reversed with the ute having silver around the headlights where are coupes is charcoal, it's a subtle difference which most people miss..

NIS15L, all the utes 1971-1977 had the metal grille. Just get all the pieces you need, and then you probably have to modify the mounting brackets on the front of the body.

Stirlingmac, how right you are about the headlight surrounds, something I did not notice until recently. A lot of coupes have silver ones, I wonder if they have aftermarket replacement grilles -- some new grilles seem to be all black and others all silver.

For more pics of the grilles on actual vehicles, see our Tech Section article Exterior Trim

What you do is get the headlight surrounds that go with this grill. Here is a pic of the L/H side..........
