I plan to start to tear useful bits off my spare Magnette in a few weeks. I would happily sell the grill for a fair price! Same for any other bits you may need.

I am affiliated with the Z Magnette Group of North America. Our membership of about 115, represents about 170 North American Z Magnette saloons - easily 95-98% of all North American Z Magnettes in existance. Your Ebay ad has been a topic of discussion on our chat group these past few hours and while we represent just about your whole market, I see no evidence that any of our members would pay $1200 for this grill. Replated, and in perfect dent-free condition, I believe you would see some interest in the $500-$800 price range. If the whole car, as shown, were to be for sale in the $1200-$1500 price range, it might sell fairly quickly.
