Tried twice before I remember these are bolts and not nuts with bolts broken off
Fender mount for the PS battery tray

Thinking fender or firewall is bent.. iirc that hole goes to the fender mount. The expansion tank it slid as far forward as possible for stock holes

You sure that frame you bought wasnt bent?

If it is bent, it's bent a whole lot less than the one I pulled out. When I pulled the radiator core support body mount bolts out everything on the front clip jumped back the the DS on the original frame. As I was hit on the DS going to the PS.
I'm sure there is a lot of stuff slightly "tweaked"
Things like DS fender needs to be tweaked back so my headlight assembly mounts correctly.

I haven't even mounted the hood yet 🫣

Put the hood on it and square up the sheet metal. That fender brace on the fire wall could be bent as well as a few other things. That should give you a better picture of what's going on.

I'll be hunting for another hood, I pick this up for sub 100.00 iirc

Everything looks good besides that hood. Mounting the coolant reservoir should be easy to mitigate by loosening a few bolts.
