Description
A well known problem: the 45-year-old plastic breaks already from the crooked look. Since I did not want my Torino to have to go through gaps in his teeth and the NOS parts are extremely expen-sive, I decided to go with the CAD program. This reproduction from 3mm-strong stainless steel (1.4301er quality!) is the result. It is powder coated and the front polished, the finished weight is then 4.1 kilos.
Even the flaps of the Hideaway Grill are a known vulnerability. Either the honeycombs break off so that only the flaps remain, or the complete flaps break. Not nice to look at both. With a reproduc-tion of 3mm thick aluminum, I could solve this problem.
The set fits on all 1970s and 1971s Torino models with Hideaway grill and on all 1970s models with GT grill. It also fits with the respective Ranchero models.
