Build your own. I have restored two H's, a W6 and a A using a homemade dolly and a pick hammer. Two of the grilles were about half of there normal depth due to being run into fences and the like. I cut down a piece of flat bar to the inside thickness of the louvers. I then ground it down to a rounded shape similar to the shape of some of my other normal dollies. When I was happy with the shape and fit, I welded it to a chunk of 1-1/2 square stock to add mass. This helps support the louvers while you straighten them. I use a normal body hammer and just whittle away at it. Of course there will always be some Bondo. The nice thing about these old grilles is they are very soft and very thick metal. I did this before I saw the adds for the tooling set. They would be nice, but buying one for every tractor is a waste. If you are like me, money is an issue. I have plenty of time...
