had to do some work on front splash pan what is the best way to put the grille back into car fellow club member HAWKEYE told me how he did his but thought i would ask for other ideas from . have looked at some videos but have found none . HAWKEYE put his back on in 2 pieces . was planning on doing mine fully assembled (pan and grille ) bolted together how have other club members done theirs thanks

for any one doing this i found out HAWKEYE was right it is easier to put back in in *** 2 -PIECES *** putting the pan in first makes the job a lot simpler dont tighten all sheet metal screws then esae the grille into position make suring you had the 4 studs previously lined up then start all the screws snug up a couple to make sure its even on both side then go for it just thought i would let others know THANKS AGAIN HAWKEYE FOR THE AND YOUR KNOWLEDGE

how about the same way you took it off. Just reverse procedure.

I took my splash pan off then the grille in one piece........hoping it goes back in reverse.

Let us know how you make out.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hubcap than ride in a Ferd.
