140 Front panels and grilles

Airspeed · Nov 21st, 2015, 21:57

I have a 1969 142, and a 1972 144 donor car. The 144 has a three piece grille, the 1969 has no front panel (hence the donor) but should have a single piece grille. Question is, will the three piece grille panel from the donor work with the single piece grille?

Simply: No!

the radiator is different too and you can't mix them

you have to weld too

the 1972 nose is the most beautifull 140 front in my opinion

regards, Kay
