68 fender attaching hardware question

It's been a few years since I took the fenders off my Charger, and now my body guy wants to put them back on to work on them, and needs the fender bolts. I have a small box of bolts labelled "fender bolts", but some of them are studs, and some are bolts. Most of the studs came out with the nuts, instead of the nuts coming off the studs, so I need to know which holes get studs, and which ones get bolts. If anyone has any pics handy that I could print and show him that would be great. Thanks.

The two (one on each side) at the top closest to the cowl are nuts/studs and I believe the four (two on each side) on the bottom rear are nut/bolt combinations. The big washers go with these. There's also a stud facing down inside the rear of each fender by the upper door hinge if you happened to remove those as well.

Sarcasm detector, that's a real good invention.

studs with nuts OR bolts with a 1" captive washer at the rocker / sill area - OR combination of both.( washer could also be a 1.25" )

one stud at each end of the cowl to fender bolt - has a nut with a 1" captive washer

All bolts with either  a .75" or .85" captive washer for the fender to inner fender

Thanks guys, that's the way I thought it was, but I got confused until I realized that I have bolts from more than one car in my bolt box.
