  where do I look to buy a 33 grill and all the attchments for my 33 tudor sedan?
I have the hood, radiator, & fenders but missing the necessary fittings/hardware and seals to finish the car.

  Post a wanted ad here and also watch epay as they turn up there . No clue as to what you are doing with your car but a GENUINE 33 grille will NOT have shiny bars - just the surround will be shiny . The hood pic I posted in your other thread shows a pretty darn good gennie 33 grille . Many replated 33 grilles get wrecked this way . Also a bent up or pitted 33 grille can give you fits so a little extra spent on a good one may be a good idea . The hardware is available from many sources .

  There is or was a company reproducing the '33 Ford grille. Nottingham?? or something like that. Probably not cheap but neither is restoring an original.

  By the time you buy a nice straight grille and then have it rechromed you are looking at spending $2500-3500. Not a cheap part.

Perhaps an EFV8 member has purchased one of these, and can comment on product quality ?
