I FINALLY got around to bending and cutting my nice flat piece of 13ga. mesh into shape to fit the frame of my Aussie "flathood" grill. Since the plastic teeth of the original were broken I cut them out and just used the frame. I have to say that I'm pleased with the results of my first endeavor into "metalwork."
With only a pair of snips, some sets of vice grips, a hammer, drill and a cinder block to work with I think I did pretty ok :)
Now the paint needs to dry and I have to find a good enough friend to help me heave the "new" 79 hood on the car.
I hope I can figure out how to post a picture if anyone wants to see how it turns out or give comments.
Thanks
Oliver
