Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

well my dimple punch didnt work out....it was pulling to much metal to make the dimple and really warping the surrounding metal...so i backed up and studied to pic of the factory radio some more and the dimple looks more flat than radiused...so i made a flate plate punch and die from some 1/8" plate....works great on my test pieces...so im gonna go with this on the enclosure box front....only shooting for close...not exact
