Re: 1941 to 46 Chrome Grille

You're pretty far away, but I've used these folks in TN before.

The last time was a 70 Duster bumper. They repaired a couple small bad spots and chromed it for $345 + $35 return shipping. I'm not positive they do grills but it may be worth a call. Nice people who do nice work.

Thanks for the info, we have two real good chrome shops here locally, but there been a lot of metal work to get it to fit where it is now

Re: 1941 to 46 Chrome Grille

I bought one of the eBay grills. They look really nice. I never had an original grill in the truck to see how it fit. The eBay grill fit but was a pain in the butt getting everything to line up. Like I said the original ones could be the same way.

What ebay company are you referring to?
How long ago did you buy your grill?
Do you have any pics of the finished truck?
