Re: Daughter Accident...need Grill recommendations

Did a little repair. Core support wasn't as bad as I thought. Got a floor jack and 2x4....did some bending. Looks pretty good actually! I went and got 2 other core supports assuming mine was bad, but once I popped the hood, it didn't make sense to remove the whole thing. I'd say it's 90-95% in correct position.

While at the junkyard, there was a broken grill (the top extended tabs snapped off), but they sold it to me for $20. I did just re-use my outside grill sections for now. Also got some new blinker assemblies to freshen it up a touch.

Not bad for less than $100 repair! Light Blue hood is in barn. Once I paint, I'll swap that over.

I did get a new steering shaft from Borgensen. Just good to have a fresh one. That was $200 though.
