I would like to remove the center nose section of my 39 six. Not just the center grill but the body section. I cant find any info as to how that comes out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Ok if no one knows that how about how to remove the center grill? Will that alone allow access to the side grill for removal?

    What model '39 are we talking about?

    I am wanting to get spot welded or maybe epoxy some metal strips in teh side grill openings so that it will be more secure

    It should be reasonably self-evident; look for  the small bolts that hold the front assembly together.  Earlier models had the radiator brackets secured to the grille shell, and then to the  shield in front of the bottom of the radiator, but cant remember what the '39  cars had.  Probably a bit more complicated having the  hood hinged at the front.

    Thanks Geoff, appreciate the info. May try just removing the center grill and doing it that way. Should be enough room for someone to get in and do what I want done.
