Hi. I'm converting my 57 Ford Custom to a 57 Meteor Niagara. Could anyone with a Meteor give me the exact position of the "METEOR" letters in the front of the car so I can drill the holes at the right place. Thanks in advance. Henning R.
Do these help?

Thanks Meteor. I'will try to attach the letters this weekend. I'm missing the left corner of the grille, the Niagara text on the front fenders and the Meteor trunk lock assembly. Is there any possibility that you have some of these missing parts for sale? Thanks. Henning R.
Sorry, nothing for sale. I have only one set of trim from my Ranchero.
I've seen meteor grilles (complete assemblies and individual pieces) on ebay in the past, rare but check often and you might get lucky.

I picked up a complete grill, in okay shape about 4 years ago direct from a Canadian yard. Even then, I paid $270.00. for it. I figure it'll cost me that much, if not more to repair it, and get it refinished.
