Haha. beliver it or not this was my first front end ever to do. i learned to weld on this car iam more of mechanical minded person put welding is all about just taking your time and doing it step by step. to do the whole front just start with a wing  then gap it up to waht is there all ready then take off the other wing and gap it up then take the front panel off and gap that up making sure the bonnet lines up well and it can be opened up easy and isnt catching anywhere if you need any advice just sed me a pm
