1968 Dart GTS Grill Nose Peice on Ebay

The car did not have the fender tag on it, so im not positive it was a LA car. The car was orininally central CA, and I believe has been all its life, but that dosent mean much without proof of a fender tag. I dont know where everyone gets the idea that that hole in the bottom of the grill is for the nose peice. It dosent bolt in at the bottom. There are two studs that go thru the front of the grill. If you look at the pictures of the nose peice I have on Ebay you can see there are just 2 studs at the back, there is not one on the bottom, and never was one. In honesty I have no idea why that hole is there on the grill. Maybe its possible it was a mistake by Dodge that the hole was drilled and they put the nose peice on to cover it up ? Or maybe they thought thats how they would bolt it on ?

That`s interesting. The centerpiece on my Dart built Aug `67 did have a stud on the end that fit in a hole bored in the grille. Sometime in the late 70`s I had a little fender bender with the GTS I had at the time. When I went to the dealer to buy one of those centerpieces it did not have the stud on the bottom, only the two in the back. Even at that time I had to order the part and wait on it to come from another state. Yup those are quite rare, the BIN price is very fair as they are just not out there.
