Trying to identify this grille

Hi all - I am trying to identify this grille I purchased recently. Currently restoring it to it's former glory but having spent hours browsing Ford images I can't find anything close anywhere. Any help greatly appreciated

1969/70 is one type (this is not it), 1971/74 (what this is) is another. 1969/74: Both painted steel and anodized aluminum grilles were available.

Anodized grilles have separate extensions that wrap around the front fenders.
