Technical 34 FORD GRILLE LACING QUESTION

What does it look like installed correctly? I need pictures and any instruction from you who know. I have the repop stuff from drake, and the clips, show me how this is supposed to work.

 

Wow, no one has pictures of the grill lacing? I don't understand how you can bend it around all those curves in one piece? Do you slit it? Cut darts in it? Anyone?

 

Billy I do not have pictures but I was able to install it without cutting it. It will flex around as it goes. Can get pictures if you need them.

 

Best pic I have Car is in storage

 

I didn't get a chance to work on the grill today but I will try this week. I appreciate the info.

 

You didn't go around the radiator cap arc. Is supposed to? I m not running the hood sides so I am just install it around the upper grill area.

 

I don't have a photo, and it's too cold to go out and take one, but I had to make relief cuts to convince it to curve around the top piece. I squeezed the little black rivets over with a pair of vice grips. Like fordcpe I didn't go around the top either, because the hinge cap (bracket?) would be in the way.

 

I have a 1 piece hood so the bracket is a non issue. I'll try a couple of things and see if I can make it around there. Thanks guys

 

here's an original, or whats left of it. its my first model 40 so i cant say whats right or wrong, not an expert, but here ya go

 

I appreciate the effort, not much remains but enough to help. Thank you
