Does anyone have a good photo of how the vacuum hoses for the headlight actuators and the headlight harness is laid in that section ahead of the rad cradle?  Survivor car photo is what I am looking for.

No one at all?  Okay, how about correctly restored cars?

Somewhat.  What Im mostly wondering about is the way they routed them around the brace that is in the center.  There are about three ways to do it.

And just to give the backstory on why the great mystery, my own 69 has the harness and hoses clipped across the top of the rad cradle where the lines go for the a/c condenser.  Looking through my photos, I noticed no other cars had them here.  I put out this request a couple of weeks ago and someone was kind enough to provide me evidence the factory may have intended them across the rad cradle.
But I still didn't have a single photo to back that up and I didn't have any of the area you provided 70sublime.  Now I know why mine wasn't correct.  It is missing these brackets on the grille.  Looking at a spare grille, I see them on there.  I plan to restore the spare and get it in my car but in the meantime, I think I can fabricate something to work in mine for now.  Thanks again!

Does your spare parts grill have 3 clips or 4 ?

Just wondering if I have lost one or they only had 3

Three, two on left and one on the passenger side.  It doesnt look as though there was a fourth but it's kind of hanging up in the rafters so I will need to take a closer look at it.
