Looking for 1979 Grille Shell

Im looking for a nice grille shell for my 79 resto. Want one with no dents that would be a nice shell to have polished when I have all my trim polished. I know I can get aftermarket shells but would really like all my stuff to match ( either polished aluminum or chrome) and since all my trim is dent and scratch free but dull I would like to find a good shell to have polished. Thanx

I'm not sure where you're located, but check your local pick-n-pulls, if they're anything like here the 78/79 grille shells are all over the place, some in really nice shape too.
