A fair young damsel of the north (north Arizona, that is) backed her daddies Toyt(ugh)ota pickup into the grill on my 72 SS whilst I was perusing the tomes of the Prescott Library. The grill being plastic should be repairable. All the pieces are there. All they need is to be put back together. Does anyone have a clue as to what brand of glue to use?

go to any body shop supplier and ask for atube of glue that could be used with a spray on hardener.[don't use the hardener because it will turn the glue white in color and make the repair more brittle]there are many brands,some of which are-Proform,Dominion sure-seal,3M.

Go to Space Age paint here in Mesa they have the right stuff to use.
Talk to Janet if she's there, very knowledgable woman.

My grill was broken into a million peices...
I used JB weld, and painted it black when it dried up.

Larrymac,
I repaired mine a few months ago. Use five minute epoxy. It can be had at any hobby shop. You can also pick up some additional plastic to fabricate any missing pieces.
