I hope someone can help please, with advise on what order to assemble
the front end sheet metal on my 57 GMC truck.
Are there any diagrams on this forum I can refer to?
Thanks in anticipation.

1. rad support
2. firewall braces
3. inner fender panels
4. after the doors are installed and aligned , install fenders
5. install hood , align
6. upper grill bar and bracket to rad support
7. lower valence
8. grill
9. L&R parking light bars
10. bumper assembly

You should also order an assembly manual from http://www.fillingstation.com or other parts suppliers.
