I am chasing a 4 PCs grill and the 2 chrome pcs that bolt onto the side of the front guards for a 1939 Pontiac roadster that was built in Australia

99% certain will be the same as USA.  1939 AU GM Holden built Buick and GM USA Buick grilles are the same

Is the 1939 Ponti roadster sill in Aussie?

Hi all , I just purchased this 1939 Pontiac roadster Silva arrow and intend to try and keep it original as possible and would appreciate any advice on where to source parts and how to lower the car .

Parts required 

1) chrome grill that pins onto the back of the front grauds.

2) 4pcs grill in good condition.

3) Pontiac barge that bolts or pins onto the front bumper bar

4) new door handles inside and out 

5 ) new side mirrors right and left

6) new rear vision mirror 

regards 

Ted

Location would help with reply.  NSW or QLD plates?

Front looks like it has been lowered a lot already.  Lowering will effect drivability. 

Original wheels were probably 16inch  (they are on Buick & Olds which uses the same basic body shell)

1. Will be hard to find: keep looking

2. Will be hard to find: keep looking

3. Try http://www.pontiacparts.net/

4. Try http://www.pontiacparts.net/

5.  Side mirrors are after market (1960s-1970s?) Never had side mirrors in 1939

6. Is just a small mirror. If you have the housing you can replace the mirror-glass. However modern car mirrors are probably safety glass - shatter proof
