I FINALLY got around to replacing my broken grille. If you can ignore the busted fiberglass on the hood (another project for another day), it looks pretty sweet.

I also did my yearly rust-check on the body: I found all the tiny spots--mostly in the door frames--that were starting to get rusty, and attacked them with a wire brush and WD-40, cleaned them, then hit them with primer and spray paint. Luckily the stock Rust-Oleum white matches my van exactly. Not the most glamorous fix-up, but it has to be done. The chassis may be a lost cause, but I'm not letting the body go without a fight.
