Default Grill options

So I just registered to this forum to ask a quick question, Although I'll probably look around every once in awhile. My friend owns a 83 f150 In which the grill is cracked horribly due to dry rot and me trying to pry off his old emblem to replace it for him. Have been looking around at auto salvage yards for a replacement but it's kind of hard to find one of these beast. However there is a ton of e-series vans on the lots so will those grill bolt right up to the f-150? They look simular but wasn't %100 on it.

Thanks for any imput.

Check the screw holes. Measure the trucks, write it down, check against the vans. I think they should. If not lmctruck.com has them. I think 100 bucks will do the entire front end but ive been ordering parts so dont quote me on that number.

On my 86 the emblem is held on by a couple nuts from behind. Is his not??

They should bolt up. Where are you from? Here in MN there are a ton of yards that have many old ford trucks. I can get a grille for 10 bucks....

I actually have one in my garage, perfect condition I would sell if close to Southern MN.
