Front End & Radiator Duct


The car had the scars of being in at least one front-end collision. Body panels on both side of the grill were dented and creased, the radiator duct panel was also warped and misshaped. 



 

Replacing the radiator duct and valance "skirt" should help bring the shape back to the front shroud. Both these parts are available new.
The duct panel and the skirt were both put in at the factory using spot welds. To remove them, every spot weld had to be drilled out.....


 

......about 10 or 12 drill bits and a lot of holes later:


Out with the old :



In with the new:
