Andre I've taken the nose off a few times myself. The best way ( I think) is to keep it in one piece. here is a way to do it. 1). remove the hood. but mark or scribe around the hood hinges 1st. It will help line the hood up later. 1A). remove the radiator. 2). unbolt a bolt at the top rear of each fender. its in the cowl area. IIRC 3). there is also a bolt behind/under the hood hinge 4). there is 1 or 2 bolts at the bottom of the rear of the fender. these are the hardest due to rust. use lots of penetrating oil. 5). there is one body/bolt combo at the front of the fender by or next to the radiator support. 6). remove the wireing harness as it hooks to the firewall. Its like a 5/16 bolt. 7). check for wiper hoses and such before you pull !!!! 8). USE LOTS OF TAGS AND TAKE LOTS OF PICTURES!!!!! SAVE ALL SHIMS AND KEEP THEM WITH EACH BOLT OR FUTURE ALIGNMENT WILL BE A PITA. !!!!!! I would not remove the nose if there is a lot of rust and large holes in the lower rear fenders. You will only make thing worse. But once the nose is off, there is tons of room to work and clean everything up. hope this gets you going....I hope I didn't miss anything Bill C an assembly manual will show this better, but if you check it out, you'll be able to do it. Get a freind to help pull it off. It will come up a little, then forward and you tilt the rear up and over the wheels.
