The front end slides of as one piece with just 6 zeus tabs and for that to happen we had to tilt the lights inward to clear them . So removing the whole front takes 2mins instead of 20mins removing the lights

Rad support bolts in with 6bolts ,3 on each frame rail and a dowel on each to line it up. so removing the callos front end and rad support takes no time

the front on my car fit the same way. i made spacers that lift the front up to meet the bottom of the headlight and hood. the spacers are screwed to the rad support with flat head sheetmetal screws. the hood is not down all the way in this picture. (and obviously im doing some fiberglass work
