    I am looking for a reproduction grille and grille surround for either a 250 or 275 GTS, something closest to this:

    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/archive/9/93/20060529155929!SC06_1958_Ferrari_250_GT_California_Spyder.jpg

    Any ideas where to find something like this? It will not be used in a car and I know it wont be cheap, it's for a clients project and it all is based around finding that grille and surround but I dont know where to look, there is nothing on EBAY.

    Again, reproduction parts would be better than original to keep costs lower.

    Thanks for the help =)

    I followed the link and typed in the info in the search box but still didnt happen to find or see what you were talkign about with fabricating his own grille. Do you have a link directly to that page? Does the page shows pics of him fabricating it? Thanks for the help.

    A friend of mine has one which we think is from a 365 GT 2+2, which does not want.

    If it might work for you, email me here: [email protected], and I will ask him how much he would sell it for. It is here in the UK.

    I love that car but it needs to be the 250 PF, 250 GT California or 275 GTS style. But thank you =)

    Business-Spice, I have both a 275 grill and a 250 grill available now. Call Ken Erwin at Ferrari of Atlanta; 678 802 5000. I am sure he will help you.

    Try contacting [email protected] which is Classic Cars by Renucci. He builds the reproduction 250 Californias and will probably help you. Just tell him "George from Tewksbury sent me" just one man's opinion tongascrew
