Oldmopars Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 What kit is this for? There are several generations of GMC/Chevy kits. If you tell us what one, I may be able to help you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldmopars Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 OK, if you are looking for one to fit the 1976 Revell Chevy Step Side, this should work. I have the Revell kit and based it off of that. I know the font is not perfect, but close. If there is interest the next time I fire up the Saturn I will knock out a few. The grill can be had in the snow plow truck.

Oldmopars Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 I went back and fixed the sharp outer corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldmopars Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 That is not like the one shown in the first post. that is why year info is important. Let us know year and kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure what year it changed, but the lettering changed over the years. While not 100% perfect, the one I made is correct for the 73-87 kits. According to the research I have done, the tail gate is correct fit for 54-87, the lettering is correct for 63-87. Only the 54-62 had the fancy lettering you show.
