Question Front Fender Removal

Finally I have begun work on the 76. I am removing the right front fender as it is dented in severely. Hoping it can be pounded out to original shape. I have removed every bolt and nut holding the fender to everything. Yet I am having trouble seeing as I cannot pull out the back to pull it away from the bolts on the front. I am hoping I don't have to unbolt the front panel that the headlights are in to get the fender off. Anyone ever done this before or have a diagram or step by step walk through, seeing as both manuals I have and the set of shop manuals I have do not talk about removing fenders. Trust me I have every thing holding the fender off.

You might want to remove the nuts on the brackets that hold the header panel to the rad support, thus allowing the header panel to come forward slightly to have enough room to pull the fender slightly back and away from the header panel.

Managed to remove it after finding a bracket that was attached to the body right next to the door. Almost fell off after I took that bolt out.
