I aquired a54 valance piece in the course of reparing my '56 truck.  It is solid with no rust through, pretty straight and only one coat of the original paint.  It has a couple of small fatigue cracks where these valances all crack but these will be easily welded up.  These sell for $195 plus shipping from Mid Fifties, I am asking $100.  See pictures and feel free to ask Questions!
