I would pay a healthy price for a grille and fender extension moldings in decent shape for my 48 Desoto , Mine are very poor condition, and I would rather not deal with the re chroming . Thanks
Don't limit yourself to just model year 48. The same grill was used from 46 to 50.
I'm pretty sure the 46-48 grilles (and first series '49) are the same, while the 2nd series '49 and '50 are different.
It's supposed to be fun!
