4AD Rad Shell Inside tabs

Post by ggvette »

Would anyone have a picture available of the 4AD INSIDE of the rad surround (shell). There look to be 3 tabs spot welded to the shell which must be used to attach the grille slats. These tabs are broken off on mine and I want to replace them before I get the chrome done. Any help appreciated.Grant :D

Grant,

Here are a couple of photos of the inside of the chrome shell. Essentially the 2 tabs on the side are bent metal (at 90 degrees) with a hole to attach the top cross bracket for the grille. Another tab is at the top just under where the Singer badge is attached. It folds down over the center spline of the grille.
