1970 Ninety-Eight front nose panel

Mine got eaten by a former owner and telephone pole. Busted up pretty much beyond repair, unless I was extremely desperate. Anyone have the nose panel (or whatever it's called) sitting around? I'm after the entire front assembly, the thing that holds the headlights and grill.

Works perfect for a 71 Delta but not for a 70.

Hey squeek if you get desperate, I have one with a big dent in it. Free to a good home. It's just hanging on my wall as a decoration.

How much of a dent? Mine has the two left lights smashed in and all the trim basically destroyed. I can fix a big dent, just can't turn paste back into car.

I'd say about the size of a large fist. Mushed in about 1/2" deep. I should be home by sunday, and can post up some pictures for you. It's definitely tweaked, but certainly fixable.

That'd be great, just what I'm looking for. I'll show you mine sometime, I'm surprised it's still attached to the car.

I grabbed the header panel today. It's in the back of my work van, and I'll try to upload some pics tomorrow after work.
