Im fitting up the grill and headlamp buckets on my 69 with non R/S front end.When I bought the car it had a modified shark type fron clip on it,so I bought all new sheet metal,grill,etc.I got goodmark fenders,they said I would have to trim off some of the brackets around the edges for the standard grill,because the fenders are all built for R/S installation,so I need to know what If all tabs to cut off the fenders.How and what doe's the headlamp buckets mount to? Im sure theres assembly books on this.I dont have one yet.Whats the best one one a 69? Thanks for any help.

Can't help with the tabw, but for the headlamp housings, sounds like you are missing the headlamp bracket/bucket assembly which attaches to the core support. if you don't have an assembly manual, you should consider getting one. Great help in figuring out how things should go back.
You might also need the grille bracket.
All these brackets are on ebay all the time, relatively cheap...or maybe someone here has one they'll sell you.
PS these parts are unique for 69...can't use 67-68.
