Just signed up and hope someone out there can help me identify this Ford grille. On the bracket that holds the emblem on is a part number of
C5GB-8B118-A. I have found grilles similar but none that have this emblem.

Thanks, Tom

Sorry about that. I guess the pics would help greatly. Nice to see you are a local Californian. I am in Chico.

I hope this works as this is first time on this site.
 
Correct on the Cyclones - they had the additional ring-type molding - base # was - I think - 8A223 or something like that. The other Comets did not have them. This one appears to be a Cyclone grille but thought the Cyclones were painted black. I remember my brother in-law bought a new Cyclone in early '65, gold with a black vinyl top, 289 hi-po, 4 speed..... wish I had that one!
