The grilles have also been stashed away. These were powder-coated. Some new hardware and rubber, too.

These go through holes in the cross members, and then slip unto hooks on the hinges.

Next, I installed the side grilles. Sorting through the hardware, I found I am short a bunch of speed nuts. The letter kit I bought last year did not come with any and I forgot to add them.

This is how I pulled the trunk hinge back for clearance to install the grille.

Happy to help. The headlights can be a challenge, but you should find some good info around here.


Hey Bob,
I have the Oil Temp Sensor and wire sorted now....thank you and the headlights now go up and down like the should.

I am running the fuel line to the carbs tonight and will install the fuel pump and inline filters tomorrow...that and attach the battery box in its permanent position up front. hope you are having a nice weekend, Grant

Another awesome picture Bob....I was a bit lost how to mount the fan and then clued in....I had a long week...I will add the additional hose to go to the other side of the car.

Could you tell me what that hose is and where you picked it up. I am having challenge finding hose for the heaters. Best, Grant

Some more bits on the engine lid. This is the plastic retainer for the baby torsion bars.
