        As work progresses in a new shop, we=E2=80=99ve discovered that =
the front end of my 100 was damaged much worse than we thought (now I =
know why the car had no front splash pan!)  And I probably made matters =
worse by selling the original grille=E2=80=94but it was minus a couple =
of teeth, so undoubtedly bent=E2=80=94and keeping a flea-market =
replacement.
        The replacement is also bent=E2=80=94not realized when I bought =
it.  The front of the shroud was pushed in at the right =
front=E2=80=94maybe from accident, maybe from being moved around in the =
prior shop for years=E2=80=94and we need a properly shaped grille to =
shape the nose to (how I wish Moss had the repair panel for that!)
        Photos of the grill are attached.  In particular, is the top of =
the grille supposed to be one continuous forward curve from side to =
side, or does it curve toward the rear at the top center?  With the =
slats removed there should be no problem straightening it=E2=80=94but to =
what shape?

Thanks in advance,
