BJ- I like how that first guard looks installed. Your's is in nice shape, I am sure it will clean up easy. It doesn't look too complicated either, I would guess a local metal fabricator could make one without too much trouble. I might have to look into getting/finding/fabricating one.[/quote]

IdahoChris, if you need dimensions, let me know... Of if you'd like me to keep my eyes out for one in your area, I can also do that!

If I'm not mistaken I believe the smaller grill guard in these pictures is called "Smash Hit" it was a company in Texas that made them. Had one on a 68 truck that I sold years ago. Was a pretty tough guard.
