lol, ...I now know they're off a 73...a friend kindly pointed that out to me..after I restored them. They don't fit into a 70-72 nose. I just assumed they were the right grills as they were sitting in the trunk when I bought the car. I've got a couple of good 73 noses if I want to use them (less the additional heavy 5mph bracing stuff)....but I found out the 71 grills are available reproduction, so I'll just get a set of them new.

I'll store these ones away. If I ever need to use a 73 nose, then I'll be right for grills.
Doesn't matter...it was good practice....lol.

What annoys me is that they turned out really nicely....would have looked good on the car. lol.
