Hi All, I have a 1935 Ford Grille that's got a little damage at the bottom, someone probably used a tow strap and it tightened up into the bottom of the grille and bent it up. A couple of the grille bars are missing down there, is there a source for replacements? I was thinking about brazing...

Let me know what you have, local to Southern California preferred, it's prohibitively expensive to ship these

Good to know! Thanks for the ID help!
