[DeTomaso] Any grill mesh reminants laying around?

[Ken Green]

Larry Finch sent me material from his destroyed grill, so I have what I need.

  Ken,
  It will be impossible to find wire cloth of the exact same dimensions.
  However, it isn't hard to get replacement wire that is 99.9% the same;
  the smart thing is to just replace the whole grille rather than trying
  to patch it.
  I got a sample from the Howard Wire Cloth Company, in Hayward CA.

  Ask for
  2 Mesh
  .080 wire
  plain steel
  It is virtually indistinguishable from the original, but just different
  enough that you probably can't use it for a patch.
