Radiator in and hoses connected.
Time to finish the grills.
I have rebuilt two grills but we did not have one decent wire mesh as both had been smashed around the crank handle hole.
Chris sourced some stainless steel woven mesh very close in design to the original galvanised wire. We salvaged the wire frame surround and reshaped it back to where it should be as they were both badly twisted.
That wire is only 2mm thick so impossible to work with.
I needed a frame to work with so I cut a piece of scrap to the shape of the mesh and curved it as needed.
