removing grille on a 65

Two nuts the same size tightened against each other. The makes it impossible to turn either nut. Then you use the nut closest to the point the stud is being removed from and turn it the directioin you want it to go - counterclockwise if you're removing it, clockwise if you're installing it. The two nuts tightened together will not move, but the stud to which they're attached will.

It's been my experience that die cast aluminum only bends once. If you try to straighten it, it will break. I have an assortment of 63 / 64 cast aluminum wheel covers that could use some tweaking. I've yet to find a way to do it successfully. You'll probably have to find a good used one.

David, grills are plentiful. I would not bother trying to straighten one. Replace. I have an extra one, but do not remember what condition it is in.
