Hey folks, apologize for the stupid question, I inherited this thing disassembled and some (not all) of the bolts tossed in box. I think my best bet is to buy fender bolt kit from AMD, but I'm having trouble ID'ing what it is I'm getting in the kit.

My current guess is:
1 - four bolts/j nuts across top of fenders plus stud/nut at the front top edge
2 - ???
3 - studs/nuts at cowl (short stud on cowl pointing up, long pointing down under the fender)
4 - bottom rear (at bottom of door) stud/j nuts/nuts
5 - fender braces
6 - ???

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Do you mean AMK Bolts? If you go to their website (isn't working for me atm), and look up the kit for your car. On the right or left side of the kit contents page there is a green camera button, and it will show the hardware, and the list shows the location.
 
Thanks, that picture is actually from auto metal direct's website. Same here, AMK doesn't want to work at the moment but I'll give it a look!
 
The body bolt kits as provided from AMD is not an AMK product. AMK does not offer a comprehensive body bolt kit, but individual pieces. You can view the AMK catalog and match up your various originals to the AMK offerings. The AMD offering is more of a generic application that will possibly cover multiple car lines and year models. They are still a quality piece that helps out if your missing pieces, or if your originals are in bad shape.
 
Yeah I had no luck with the AMK site, for 68 bbody kits anyway. I was wondering about that AMD kit covering multiple models, that would make sense. I went over that picture again while looking at my various front end pieces and I think there is everything in there to do it plus some. So going to pull the trigger today. Just wish the dude that took this thing apart would have bagged/tagged. I tried to sort everything out, pretty sure there's a fair amount missing, unfortunately have to throw money at the problem.
 
Kudos to AMD, they responded to my inquiry!

"That kit also includes hood to hinge and hinge to inner fender bolts. Parts should have been labeled to indicate where they get used. My tech guys are out until next week at a show.
Let me know if you need additional information and I will follow up with them next week to get you more information."
 
short stud goes on top of cowl, long studs go at bottom rear of fender; and up, under fender near the upper door hinge.....the rest is self explanatory
