I just picked up my 57 GMC grill from Nu-chrome in Fall River Ma. Had 1 die cast center part and the grill itself. Both parts were wrapped. The person there opened up the pot metal part for me to see...Looked good! I didn't open the grill package until I got home. I found a wonderful "sandblasted" finish on the slats! You have to SEE this to BELIEVE IT
