Thanks,

sorry for the photobucket SNAFU, but I can take new pics of any area you have in question. good luck with your build.
I used a repro grille, and you will want to take out the rivets for the grille surrounds as the are not painted behind them, just a heads up if you go this route
sorry my build is soooo big
Also, the core support bushings will give you fits, since your frame bracket is set up for 72, but your core support is 67-68, buy both bushing and fit as needed, or change the bracket on the frame. Holes are a different size. You'll see the effect of this when you mount the fenders and the gap between the fender and door is off
