I finally received the pair of original stainless headlight bucket moldings from Vancouver. I had to un-dent and sand & polish them. I also received the front driprail molding section I needed from a guy on one of the facebook E-body groups on line. That got the same treatment as well.

The repro road lamp brackets finally arrived and they fit a whole lot better than the beat up originals. Now both road lamps actually point forward. What a concept!

Here's how she looks with the grill and nose completed as well as the driver's side drip rails, weatherstripping and glass all adjusted.

And I finally got to use the NOS 'cuda tail emblem I've had sitting in a box of old emblems in my closet since 1982. I had to find the factory installation diagram to get the measurement right. The factory two-sided tape had to be replaced since it became one with the backing material and solidified into something resembling teflon that would not stick to anything. So I used new, emblem two-sided tape and a razor blade to get it trimmed properly.
