Well, the good news is the hood latch was obviously working so you should be good with that. The zipties, no bueno... You will need to get the 69-72 bucket mounts (see pic) and position them, and either drill and screw them on or weld them on. Then the headlight bucket is held on by a spring and 2 adjusting screws. You MIGHT be able to make this work without the part circled in red below, but I have never tried it so I can't be sure about that.

Remember, trucks are fun, I have to keep repeating that so I don't sell mine.

Good luck, Rg
