53 Golden Jubilee

[sg47619]

Hi: I’m trying to put a 53 jubilee back together after the body work was done from a tree falling on it, it was in boxs and the hood was apart and off the tractor. I trying to fit the grill to the hood side pieces and can’t figure it out. Any help would be much appreciated.
thanks in advance

It's a booger if things are bent. I'll go down and take some pics of my '54 and see if it helps.

Mine had been run into something I guess before the grill guard was put on. it took a lot of sheet metal work to get it all to fit.

I don’t see the piece in the corner that’s sicking out mine are both bent inward, I guess I’ll have to figure out how to bend them back out.
thanks.
