Can you be more specific?  Are you looking for a grill? Script? or hood ornament?  I flooking for a hood ornament, there is a 51 Hood Ornament on Ebay.  Original used one and remanufactured one are on there.

On the four cylinder cars those pieces were painted as opposed chrome. Here's a set that appears to be chrome - bad chrome, but you could have them plated.
