New Project 82 front clip on 78

[C-10FREK]

Hi all Its been a while life caught up to me for a while, bought house, and that stuff . Anyhow I built an 82 2wd ,bagged, big block fun truck. well Its gone now I got hit in the passenger rear boxside (because someone didnt know that red means stop). Bent the frame rails and wrecked my homemade 4 link that took for ever to make, blew a bag, broke 3 of my valves a mess. needless to say I have to make another.
I recently bought a 78 c-10 got it for 25$ less engine and trans so I figured that is my new project. my problem is that I want to use my 82 front clip but I have some concerns, one what do I do with the rear hood hinges? and second the wiper couling?. It looks like everything else will be a bolt on kinda. I m sure I am missing something. Sorry this might be run in to the ground already, but thanks all
