54 grille
I was wondering if anyone knows of a place or catalog that sells new 54 grilles. I think I have mostly of the catalogs and they only offer the 56 grille. I would rather stay with a 54 that way I won't have to replace the air reflectors. Thanks!

FoMoKo1, what are you talking about, that is one of the best if not the best looking grill ever. 
I would like to have one of those 54 grills myself, one that is in chromable condition. Like stated before I have a 55 grill that is in chromable condition (STRAIGHT) that I would trade for the same in a 54.
Does anyone remember about 4 or 5 years ago when the nationals were still in Pigeon Forge, there was a real dark blue metalic 54 with Torque thrusts and a chrome grill sitting like these trucks ought to, it was on the cover of either Classic Trucks or Custom Classic Trucks. That was when I realized how good a 54 grill can look. I saw the truck in person down there, It was awesome!

My truck is actually stamped 54 on the chassis, though my grille is a 53, like in the USA, 54 grilles are rare as rocking horse dung in Australia, anyone care to freight me one over.....just kidding

Thanks for posting guys. Sam (Both) are good guys and friends of mine for many years. Sam takes a good grill , blasts them, and has them straightened by a very skilled metal worker and then has them powdercoated in the stock white color. There is normally a few on the wall.. Tell him that Jon, (oxygen boy) told you about them as I have tried to get him to join FTE and perhaps some activity will help. Sam jr. has a real cool 56 and his dad has a number of cool old fords inc a 56 SD. Lot of stock in house and dealer fro D.Carp.
