Blue, I have done a tilt nose on 55-59 Chevy Trucks, 54-66 F-100's, a 53 Bel Air, and a 65 Plymouth. The last one was the best. (you learn from your own mistakes)
a) Do not bolt thee fenders directly to the hood. Measure the space between the two and keep that gap for alignment sake. I used washers and then filed the crack with black silicone, enough to give a straight black line.
b) Plan out your fenders. Do you want the entire fender to go or cut off the dogleg and attach it to the cab. I like cutting the dog leg. When you tilt it, you don't have to duck under the fender. The trick to this is either hiding the cut with body lines or chrome trim
c) Establish a hinge point.Do this using a heim joint or tie rod end type set up. This gives you the ability to adjust the nose after you have driven it a while.
d) The other thing that comes to mind is the front bumper. You either have to have the tilt clear the bumper or hinge the bumper with the nose. The latter is easier, but the draw back is if you hit something a little too hard, you'll screw up the entire front end.
Just think before you cut and plan out things like wiring harness and a way to stop the nose from going to far in a tilt.
