1932 Ford "Reproduction" Grill Shell History

[Doug]

Does anyone out there know the year (or approximate year) that the first
Reproduction/Aftermarket (not NORS) 1932 Ford metal Grill Shells were
produced and offered for sale? Thanks

Call Brookville Roadster... they were first as far as I know for a modern reproduction. Vintique second.

Brookville Roadster 17 years ago.

It's a shame Vintique just doesn't give a poop about quality. Their first run of stock style shells (while thinner gauge metal) were really nice. Sadly, they didn't not change the die and they got progressively worse as time went on.

If got one from the early batches, you did good.
