Is there a how-to anywhere for removing grill and front clip?
About to do some work on front suspension/frame that would be easier with the inner fenders removed. Also have a better condition sheet metal for the front end. Seems like a good time to pull all of it and get to fixing.
Not going to try to pull as one piece, done have the help to manhandle it. I think I can figure out the hood and inner/outer fenders, but I don't even know where to begin on the grill.
FWIW the body is from a 70 model with matching grill.
