So the hood was holding the radiator core support in place and only the smooth front lines of the C900 were keeping your fenders from peeling outwards like flower petals in the wind?
Luckily you have the tools (building, lifts, welding equipment and the skills to use them to good effect! During the re-install, are you going to pour POR-15 in liberal doses after removing more surface rust on things like front subframe members, bumper support pieces, etc, prior to painting them in something else protective?
I'm glad you got to work on that before anything "really bad" like a front end collision happened.
Now, drumroll please for the grand unveiling of the repairs. Although as far as pictures go showing the "enough is enough" state of cars, we need to look to the british for those. It seems they take joy in taking a lacy piece of a portion of sheet metal and restoring it into a full vehicle again!
