GM Chevrolet 3997233 Grille Emblem 1972 Impala Caprice Original OEM
$49.99
This is an original GM Chevrolet 3997233 grille emblem made for the front grille of a 1972 Chevrolet Impala or Caprice.
The raised Chevrolet lettering remains clear and readable, while the chrome-tone metal, recessed black background, back surface, and mounting hardware show visible wear, oxidation, discoloration, and age from use.
This original Chevrolet grille script suits a 1972 Impala or Caprice restoration where an authentic GM marked part matters more than using a modern reproduction.
