I am finisng up the repair and reconditoning of 2 GS grills prepping them for paint ( what a pain in the BUT ) Any way I am offering them to this board first be for i Ebay them , They are the 72 ABS plastic GS grill that are not reproduced I have made some repairs to them (you realy would have to look hard to find the repairs ) I also reinforce stud and other areas neatly that tend to brake off or crack , I do this as they are 38 years old . I will post pics when i am done If any one is interested I am Asking $ 375 each + shipping , i have done aprox 8 or 9 of them over the years getting better all the time , The paint Is Argent silver and a semi Black Here are some i have done in the past pics posted below
Please put me first in line for the nicest of the two (if applicable). I want to email my friend to ask him if he is interested. I will let you know. By the way, what's your name?
My friend would like one of the grilles. I will PM and email you with his email address and name so you can contact him with payment info. Thanks, Ken
I hope to finish one first part of the week. if i can find time I will post some pics of the actual grills as soon as they are done . right now the black is done and i am tapeing off for the silver this is a pain and very time consuming . . I will post as soon as i can! Dave gsx1@bellsouth.net
Did you get my friend's email address that I pm'd and emailed you? He's got payment ready. How long do you think it will be until you have one done and can send finished pics?
