69 Valiant grille nameplate question

[dodge71demon]

Has anyone ever seen this Valiant
nameplate on a 69 Grille?

 

[Dartnut]

No, but i would like to have one.
I'm also looking for another plymouth center emblem like in the grille pictured above.
They are found on signets in '69.

Nope I havn;t...My buddy has my old 69 valiant nothing on the grille.. That one looks cool of course

nope, never seen one mounted like that. I'm guessing that if there's no tin connecting the upper and lower grill pieces that are right behind the emblem, then its a po add on. the location looks a little wierd too.

Wrong I think it's OEM by the way the grille wasn't bought in the USA

Did a little digging on the web and this is what I found
Apperantly the 69 grille may have been still used in 70
export valiants check this out from Puerto Rico

Turkey? Cool.
How did you end up finding one there? How about the shipping costs?
That's got to be a story in itself.

Found it on Ebay the 3rd listing was running out I contacted
the seller and bought it for $225 SHIPPED (shipping was $85)
Lot better grille than any I was finding in the states for not
much more money had it at my door in 3 weeks plus it has the
oddball nameplate on it
