In Reply to: ih 350 grille repair posted by k1hb on December 17, 2014 at 10:39:05:
ok, just went to the shop and we hammered away again. the tool set is not all and to straighten out my grille and the sheet metal to that 350 will cost me 300 just for the use of the die shop and presses and the expertise. plus 120n for the die set....i dont think i could have done it without, but the die set is very very tight. ebay has a fairly good grille for 260....shipping and restauration would have cost about the same there is a banged up 450 grille for 75 but looking at it it will cost 300 at least to clobber it into a semblance of normal. so yes if you have time and tools banging at it yourself is an option but the endresult might suffer....
