Trouble Removing Grille, visual refs included...

[Moparman01]

Yup, i know there is a huge date base of Grille questions and i have read thru tons of them but i'm still not getting it! Bare with me, this is my first resto project, but i will admit i've already learned a ton about how these cars were put together. Anyways, i can't seem to get my grille out, it's loose but just won't budge from it's home between the front fenders. Here's what i've done....

Front valance and bumper are off the car!

I've removed these 4 bolts, 2 on each side...



Next i removed these 4 bolts, 2 on each side, from the front fenders...




I've also undone the screw that holds the frame to the center of the core support and all wiring and hoses are out of the way. So what am i missing?? I want to take it all out as one complete unit them go from there on the restoration of the grille. The novice is scratching his head LOL, thanks for any help!

Ok that did the trick, grille is completely loose and ready to come out, but i have determined that the front bumper side brackets have to come off, can't get the grille up and over them.
