61 grill

I've searched wrecking yards, back yards and anywhere else imaginable. I've done the ebay thing craigs list all with no luck. I'm looking for a straight grill I did find one that was in an accident many years ago and was accordion shaped and real rusty. Are these grills that rare? If found in straight overall condition what would be a fair price?
Thanks

1961/66 = the headlamp doors (bezels) are ALL the same.

There are two types = chrome or painted.

In addition, the buckets and all the attaching parts are also the same.

1965 STYLESIDE (fleetside is a chevrolet) tailgate fits 1964/66. It also fits 1967/72, but is styled differently.

I should have been more specific: Chrome = actually anodized aluminum.

There are chromed steel H/L doors also, because JC Whitney, and other parts stores used to sell them. Not only that, but ppl also chromed their painted H/L doors.

RED Tailgate: 1967/72 = C7TZ-9940700-A / It also fits 1964/66.
================================================== =======
1967/72: The FORD letters are smaller, have serifs and there's a ovate scallop line surrounding the letters.

1964/66: The FORD letters are block style, and are larger. No serifs..no scallop line.
