I would use the front fenders as my guide, provided you have fenders.

Get ahold of Icehouse. Himself & Frank have rescued several 510's including Hainz's that had front end damage.

We took Hainz's all the way back under the floor removing the whole frame rail. Then at the top where it connects to the A pillar. here are a few pics of what we did.

 

 

 

 

 

 

To the untrained eye there is no evidence that it was ever wrecked, I would find another donor car for a better clip.

It might be easier in your case to just start cutting and fitting it up. Or pay us to do it :)
