So I'm getting her put back together...

I believe I know which bolts go where, just by the number of bolts that i have, but I need a bit of help making sure. Please help me identify the following three bolts...

I believe that the center bolt is for fenders, the bottom is for running boards, but I don't know what the top bolt is for. I think I only have 4 of the top one. Any help? Thanks guys

My immediate response to the rorschach test:

Top (medium head) is for the hood to hinges.

Middle (fat head) is for fender to body.

Bottom (shallow head) is for running board to fender.

Perfect !! That will be so helpful on the hood to hinge front.
You Buggeee have been a great help today, and I thank you again
