About to start on restoration of a 71 340 Cuda same owner/stored since early 80's basically all original. The question is the grille. There is evidence of old collision repair. The grille is black with the lower mounting strip behind the bumper car color. I believe this is a replacement grille. Having had a 70 new in 70 and having 42 years in the biz I only recall 71 grilles being in argent or car color. I do not remember any 71 grilles in black.
Build sheet is present. None of my references list any codes for the grille. Do any of you E body gurus know the code we could reference from the bouild sheet? This is the last tidbit of info we need. Thanks for any assistance anyone may render.
