Modelhaus 69 GTX grill

[camaroman]

Has anyone out there bought the 69 GTX grill from ModelHaus.

Is it "correct" or is it the same grill that is in the reissued

69 GTX convertible that has the RoadRunner grill?

Anyone with photos of this piece???

I can not post a photo for you but can tell you that the Modelhaus grille is an exact duplicate of the Jo-Han promotional grille with molded in headlamp detail. (I have the Modelhaus grille you are questioning, along with the original Jo-Han kit grille.) There was a major difference between the Jo-Han promotional and kit grilles. The kit used separate clear headlamp lenses, whereas the promotional (aka "curbside") had the headlamp detail molded and plated as integral part of the grille. This Jo-Han grille is much more accurate (especially in depth) than the latter "AMT/Ertl/RC2" 1969 GTX Hardtop or Convertible kit grilles.....and I'm not even including the mis-packaged AMT kits which have the 1968 Belvedere Road Runner grille, LOL! So much for progress, huh? Hope this helps? Fury3

Here are some pics of an Original Johan 69 GTX.

The 69 Plymouth Sport Satellite (what I once owned) used this same grill with out the GTX

The AMT has no Depth.
