Title: Removing Cuda Grille
Post by: jlemler on January 22, 2025, 09:17:49 AM
I checked the manual I cannot find it.  I am trying to remove the center grille section from a 1970 Cuda.  Can someone tell me the attachments points for the center section.  Please don't tell me I have to take the valance off.
Thanks, Jeff

I've never had to take a valance off. However, there have been times where my grille got hung up right at the middle "nose" part. Had to do some jiggling and afterwards started to put down some thin cardboard in that spot so as not to scratch the paint. Of course the headlight buckets are off, I even take the turn signals off just more for their protection. I think my picture has all the mounting points circled (all the clips are missing).

Enlarged & edited from the Service Manual. It would appear I have them all circled above.
