Re: ParB's 72 Orange Jimmy

The grille is pretty worn. Debating if I can clean it up myself or just replace it. Bumper is likely to have to be replaced to match the rear bumper which was bent/dinged to the point it had to be replaced. I already purchased the rear bumper so getting a new front and the grille seems like a logical next thing to do.

Need to restore the small emblems on the side. I assume people just clean up the metal and fill in paint with a fine brush? Or is there a different technique I should consider? While the truck is in the body shop in figure I will work on minor stuff just to get it done.

I decide to keep the original camper mirrors. Need to clean them up. Elbow grease and metal cleaner?
