    Wow, that's a rare piece. Cost a lot more than that to have one rechromed

    You're looking at $1200-$1500 for a re-chrome job, (in my location) plus the value of an original grille, so the starting figure of $2K for an OEM in the box is not out of the ballpark. NOTHING is cheap these days!!! I'd like to find a OEM in the box 64 grille..................

    Thanks for the feedback. You're all correct about the grille.

    I was thinking the same thing. And while a re-chrome might have nicer chrome plating, the grille itself will no longer have nice sharp edges like an original.

    Here's one on ebay,
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/254903906620?hash=item3b5974f13c:g:T9kAAOSwUAdfyaNk
    Hard to tell how good it is with their pics, but says NOS. No threads cut on the mounting studs.
