I purchased a 1976 grill and it's funny because I thought It would fit a 77. The holes are not lining up perfectly and there seems to be a bit of a gap. The brackets do seem a bit out of sync and look like they've been bent back a bit, probably due to being pushed in when the orig. grill was busted. If someone has this style grill, please post a photo of it on the car. I'd like to see what it should look like properly installed. TY.

Thanks man. Yours looks nice! Was that the stock bowtie for the grille? Either mine is wrong or in bad shape.

BTW...
I think this was one of the problems with the alignment. Explains why the black 77 grille was broken. I think at one time someone tried to push the car & did some unintentional bending. LOL.
