@rocky posted:You have a nice set of tools, so probably don’t need me to suggest, but might be a good idea to start careful is assembling, to look for other hidden damage.
It’s surprising how good the hood looks, and the front grill frame & mesh is probably easily repaired.
But you might find associated damage to the sway bar, and the light bar assembly. Your front driver side suspension arms might be tweaked.
Anyway…. Best of luck with the repair…

PS. Good time to convert to small format front bumpers, too!
Thanks. Yeah I can disassembly easily. I have a new rack for it also. The car drives but the fender is hitting the wheel at less than lock.
I'm torn with the small bumpers. I spoke with the president of the la pantera club who has talked at length about that and the design with the original designer for pinafarina. He said absolutely don't back date because the front 74 bumper is a functional aero element that makes a big difference at speed. Fun fact. 🤷♂️
