19richie66 17,530 #1 Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) A friend picked up a 702 but the grill was toasted. He managed to find another hood with a good front but the rear was hacked. So I took it and cut the bad grill behind the seam and the good hood and cut it in front of the seam. Ground out the spot welds and peeled out the sheetmetal. This stuff is thin but I turned down the heat and got them joined back together. I will weld the bad grill and bad hood top back together for a rat something. Didn't turn out bad.
