Is Mike Dulinsky still big in V8 parts?
Yes, he has well-over 100 of them but he's not good at responding and the high humidity where he is takes its toll on his parts. maybe try Mike at Tucson Packard instead. While he doesn't have as many cars as Dulinski, he does have a number of 1956s but unless you buy NOS, you'll have to do some rechroming etc. Doe the grille and trim, I would see if Max Merritt has NOS, pay more, and get something usable.
That said, my 1956 Clipper Custom was in an accident on the passenger fender which didn't look too bad so bought a fender, the grille pieces for that side and got it back together myself (it wasn't quite as bad as yours) but then found that it had subtle damage on the other side of the grille too so be sure to check thoroughly for damage.
