I'm looking for the grill center bar and hardware, also the bottom center bracket for the grill.

[gasman826]

I don't have.  I almost bought a complete grill with hardware this past weekend at Gas City swap just because it was there.  It needed chrome and straightening but did have the brackets and turn signals.  The center bar was included but the attachment hardware was rusty and probably would not survive disassembly.  I made new center bar attachment hardware with stainless.

[hiball3985]

OK, Thank you. My original grill was rusted and had no center piece, I found a another grill in good shape that was cheap but it didn't have the center bar either  .

Just remembered the other item I need, a rebuildable / salvageable heater core with the temp control valve? Mine was replaced with one without the valve..

[gasman826]

I'm just not much help!!

Why do you need a heater?

Why do you need a heater?

For the same reason as everyone else, I don't like frozen nuts  I spend a lot of time in the mountains and the desert.

Do you have a pair of rear bumper guards for a '57 wagon?  Thanks, Ron

[gasman826]

No.  No wagon specific parts.  There's a NOS on eBay...301000007846

Gasman826 -  Would you happen to have a front bench seat for a 57?  Or would you happen to know where I can get one here locally in Michigan?  It doesn't have to be perfectly correct, as long as it looks right in a 57, and will accept a seat belt kit.

Thanks!

[gasman826]

I'm holding the one in the pictures for Jeff Norwell.  I have a rear seat, a late model rear that fits, and a newer Ranchero 60/40 that needs a new cover.  I'll check for a front seat the next time I'm at the farm (don't live there anymore).

[Fryguy302]

If the 60/40 Ranchero one will fit I am interested.  I will PM you.  Thanks!

On another note...late this summer, I will be offering the farm at auction.  Farm auctions around here have a history of doing well.  The new garage will be complete and moved into.  Traveling to the farm to work in the shop and do other maintenance is no where near the fun I thought it would be.  Therefore, the barn will be emptied!!!  Over the past several months, several people have helped reduce the inventor.  Though well picked, there are still many remaining jewels.  I'm not saying that I'm giving it away but I certainly have conceded all my negotiating leverage.
