Product Condition Grades
Below is a general description of what the criteria is for our product condition grades. These are generalizations that are intended to give you an idea of the condition of the product at a quick glance. Because different parts degrade at different rates, there are variances in what the letters represent, please see the products description for details about the condition of any particular product.
A = Excellent / Above Average
B = Average / Some flaws / Good to Excellent Driver Quality
C = Obvious flaws / Poor to Average Driver Quality
D, E, F = Worse, Worser, Worsest
Restored corral for the passenger side eyelid on the 1969 Mercury Cougar. This is just the outer corral and does not include the background decal or the walking cat emblem.
NOTE! If you pay the core charge on our 1969 restored grille parts or complete grilles we will be under the assumption you do not have cores to send in or they are average quality with pits and cracks. If you have really clean cores you will want to send them in advance and not pay the core charge so we can do what we call "core matching". At a minimum you will want to send us detailed pictures of your disassembled cores so we can pick like quality from our stock on hand. Keep in mind we often can give extra store credit for any extra grille parts you may have.
