Hey Guys, Can someone shoot me a representative flange to flange measurement at the base of their 1936 pickup radiator shell, (or flange to flange between front fenders where they meet the lower shell)? Trying to do some alignment work, but need an idea of what I should be looking for. I've got a couple radiator shells, but one's measuring 18.5" and the other 17". One (or more likely both) is apparently bent.

Thanks
 
I went out and measured our '36 Pickup and it looks like it is 18 1/4 " flange to flange. It fits nicely. I'd take a picture of it but not very good at posting pictures on here.

17 inches sounds a bit off.

I suppose as long as it fits well with the fenders it shouldn't be a problem.

Hope that helps.
 
Thanks Jeff, The truck I'm working with has had poor repair work to both front fenders that I'm currently trying to correct. The better grille I have is 18.5 inch wide and was hoping it was correct.
