Front sheet metal removal
Hey fellas, I'm trying to remove my front sheet metal from my 56 f100. I understand everything that has to come off except for the cowl bolts, like how many are there and where are they. I can see bolts coming through the back of the fenderwell but cant see the heads on the other side. I need to get at my rocker panels to do some welding so I'd like to get it all off. Any diagrams or pics would be of great help. Thanks!

Rob,
I havent personally removed a front end intact but have heard there are 11 bolts holding the front end on. If I had to guess I would say 3 are around or close to the radiator support along the front and maybe 4 on fender at the rear including the bolt mounting the fender to the running board. I would imagine someone who has done this will be along soon to help. This article may be of some help as well.
