Hot Rods 33 or 34 Ford grille

Does anyone still make a repo 33 or 34 grille ?

 

3rd Gen Auto has them every few months

 

Made in Australia. Michael at third Gen is the U S distributor

 

Nottingham (sp?) In California makes 33 grilles.

 

They are different. Which do you want, a 33 or 34?
34s are more common. 33s, Lee Nottingham sets the standard if you can source one.

 

Last time I talked to Lee he was no longer making grilles but that was while ago. American Speed was advertising them in their on line catalogue but they may have been Nottingham grilles? Last I knew Lee lived in Mississippi?

 

33 and 34 grilles are being made in Australia and most are going to the USA, I picked up mine today and its fucking awesome. They are being advertised on Facebook here in OZ, I purchased my one zinc plated and may chrome later or leave as is, a few pics. Glen

 

That's a nice looking piece.

 

Oh yeah! Thanks for the post. I so need that.

 

Really looking for a 34, but would take a 33. Most people can't tell the difference. Checked third gen and they don't know when or if they will get more. Seems that Nottingham quit making the 33. Why did Drake quit making them ?

 

I may be wrong (I usually am). 33 grills fit 33 only hoods and 34 grills fit 34 only hoods.
So. . . . Plan accordingly, good luck

 

Yes, you are correct. The 33 and 34 hoods are different where they meet the grill. I am not running a hood, so it really won't matter to me.

 

Red- 33
Flames- 34

 

What do these grilles cost in Australia in US dollars? They look great

 

Boy, that AC condenser sure is ugly !

That looks fantastic.
And reasonable compared to some asking prices I've seen lately

 

And a good example of why alloy rads and condensors should be painted black!!!

 

I wonder what my chrome shop would charge to plate one of those new ones. Starting with a brand new piece takes a ton less work than a rough original, but it's still a lot of buffing on a big, awkward piece. Looks like an excellent stamping though.

 

Who makes them in OZ?

 

I just got my 33 grille from Nottingham. Was on their list for almost 2 years.

It's beautiful

 

Fair price, but out of stock ?

 

Looks really good!

 

Took some pics at a friends shop in Texas. His job was to get the 33 German built coachwork”special” to run where the owner could sell to his sister. Very interesting and different car but the grill looks prettytraditional. PS that is not me in the pic—Jimmy has a 33-3 window.lATTACH=full]5655168[/ATTACH]

 

Huge doors on that!
