I saw a post on here once about a guy who had a South American Series III with an awesome grille. I can't fidn it now...or any other information anywhere. Aside form the metal aftermarket ones that wise owl seals....has anyone seen another looking grille?

I've seen the plastic Series III grill and the wire mesh series III grill.

Isn't that just a late IIA grille?

RM sells a SIII metal replacement grille. It doesn't really float my boat, though...

Hmm...Which specific post number is it? All I see for grille pics is a regular Series II grille and a defender grille in any of the pics on that page. I set up my preferences with the newest posts displayed first, so my "page 43" might be different than your "page 43".

Edit: If you mean the SII grille, then I know where one can be found:

he means this: http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w297/himynameisdaniel/blog%20word/DSC09424_resize.jpg

I've never seen one of those before that guy posted it. Personally it looks like a shelf from a refrigerator or something to my eyes, but it certainly looks strong... I sort of wish there was an all metal version of the plastic SIII grill.

Just saw later on he says its an Australian market grill from a IIa 6cyl... maybe ebay.au (http://cars.ebay.com.au/) is a good place to setup a search if you are set on getting one.

Somewhere, there's an oven missing its rack.

I just sold a Santana military SIII wire grill, much stronger than the plastic ones.
