I've always wondered about these guys:
USbody.com | Fiberglass Auto BOdy parts, Monster Truck and Full Race bodies. Molding fiberglass since 1987.
53-56 Ford Truck

I made that suggestion but it fell on deaf ears. The truck belongs to a good friend who has owned it for many years. He bought it as a rust free, dent free, stocker and relishes in that fact. He had it another friends shop getting an alignment and one of the employees backed into it with a truck with a trailer hitch on the back. Wiped out the grill. So the shop owner is trying very hard to replace it with a nice 53 grill.

Hey Okiedokie,
The best I could find is this one in Lebanon, Tenn. about 500 miles East. He's asking $250 I believe. Greyhound has a freight service that's pretty reasonable for large parts. There is also a new one on Ebay for $800.
1953 FORD P-Up Grill
Good luck over there (except against the Longhorns).

I have one that's in exceptionally good shape all in primer, but I'd have to have $400 for it. Original Ford factory grill I took off mine because I've swapped my '53 cab for a '56. I'm located in KS close to KC.
