wtb: 55 grill ends
I am looking for the ends off a 55 truck grill. Just using the headlight area and the center part is getting changed so would hate to cut up a nice grill anyone have the ends of maybe where the center section is beat up?

Should be able to use a 53-55 headlight bucket area as they should be the same. Good luck, that area usually rots first.

The parking lights on the 55 look more like a 56...kinda square as compared with the pointy 53/54. This may make the underside of the 55 headlight bucket a bit different from the 53/54 and possibly the 56.

I would prefer 53/54 but figure 55 is easier to find.

I have seen some fairly thrashed grilles that had good headlight buckets...I think that I have a couple out in the storage barn.
