I am hoping someone can help me.

I need the the stainless trim piece that goes over the centre of the grille of a 1955.

The part manual describes it as 8221 - Cover - Radiator Grille Opening Panel Joint. The part Number for 1955 B5A 8221B, suggests that is different than a '56 which is B6A 8221A.

The one that I have for my '55 Tudor that I am restoring is so badly dented and distorted that it is unusable.

If you can help or know of one somewhere could you PM me?

Hi Bill and Carl

Thanks for the offer Carl. It looks like Bill may have what I want.

Bill, the last time we spoke I thought you mentioned that you didn't have much in the way of spares for the cars left.

However, seeing as you may have one, I will give you a ring later today.

Regards

Thanks for the comment Dan.
I love the humour and wit on this site. Even though it is 4am in the morning here it still cracks me up.
