Choco found a nice grille for his mmid 30s mopar in the local supermarket parking lot.  It was very inexpensive, and he can use the leftover dolly wheels and push handle for something else.  :wink:

Carps isn't joking either! You need to ask Choco about his grille!

I got an Alumicraft grill for my '36 Plymouth & it is OK constructon wise. It took forever to get & I got a lot of excuses about the delay, maybe legit, maybe not.
I had to spend a lot of time fitting the grill to the grill shell, as with most (all?!??) hot rod stuff you don't just "bolt it in". I had to modify the brackets that came with it & that is my main complaint. I think the mounting system could be better.

Personally, I would prefer a steel or stainless grill over aluminum simply because they are stronger and the stainless will look better longer than aluminum. I have seen some aluminum grills in '32 Fords, and they don't look nearly as nice as stainless ones do. But I have not seen or dealt with HER products so I cannot respond to that part of your question.
