Keep the 76 nose on it.

Yep, Viles got it. For direct bolt on you'll need the whole front clip -- older style hood, core support, fenders, wiper assm., and the 81 bumper may not work with older style fenders.

Not sure what we're voting on though. ???

You can buy aftermarket fenders for the 76 nose for about $75 each.

They're so different in size and shape that what you want to do would take way more sheet metal work than just fixing the 76 front clip.
