...and I'm sure you'll see that. Most factory publicity photos appear to show
a "vertical" grille neither bowed in nor out. As Randall hinted at, the front
apron is a rather vulnerable expanse of sheet metal that can be difficult to
restore to absolutely "proper" shape after any sort of impact. It's all too
easy to push the top of the opening downwards, and (even with the bumper --
which bolts through the lower part of the apron -- in place) the bottom is
rather easily distorted as well by various impacts.
