You can try to force It in its position and hammer and dolly the 90degree part. If you force it in the correct position you can shrink the top portion that way.

It has been my DD for the past 2 days and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.. we finally have low temps in the 60s. Such a pleasure to drive in these conditions.

I was thinking since both of these rigs are native to Oregon since 64 and 65, there's a slight chance they may have met each other before.... just kinda cool to think about...
Finished bringing this back to life. I straightened the push buttons, cleaned the volume control, painted the pointer, cleaned and lubricated the tuning mechanism, replaced all electrolytic capacitors with US or Japan sourced components, and cleaned it up a little. Installed an led from @ToyotaMatt.

Started in on my AGR Saginaw power steering conversion on my 1967 FJ45
It looks great! Thanks you so much Russ for your time and willingness to make this happen. What great service you provide and the excellent detail you put into it. I would recommend anyone that needs there radio service to contact you.
Thanks again,

Installed fresh painted top....I know, grill still upside down
Whats different about the AGR units? Does something make them "better" or are they just a solid rebuilder? I'm sure google would answer this for me but first hand experience is much appreciated.
I know you found it but wanted to add the link here in case someone else wonders.

Started on the cluster.
I decided to cut a section out of the inner support and make some relief cuts to the top. Then I am going to use angle iron to clamp it straight and stitch the cuts that I made.
That works too but the downside of that is that you get the bends at the cut points where with hammering it would have been evenly spread where the metal needed the shrinking. Plus the added heat of the welding requires planishing with hammer and dolly.
