Passenger Front Fender Removal

I need to have my fender removed to repair some rust around the oil lines.
Does someone have a pic of where all the connections are that need to be removed?
I've got 30 years of grime and have no idea where to start chipping away under the fender/wheel well area.

Any pics, diagrams would be much appreciated. (FYI... I've searched and found plenty of instructions, but no pics)

The slope is not slippery; in fact it is entirely frictionless.

I asked for his email so I could send pics of a fender that is off of a car, feel better now.

I can send you pics too if you have the same question.

I found this on you tube - the first few minutes shows good pics of fender bolts

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0dJpO9PnaY

However on our 78 911 there are 2 hidden bolts in the door jam area this pic shows the location



Fender off pic



And, there may be a few bolts under the head lights where the fender meets the front bumper -
depending on your specific car.

Regards,

IIRC there are 16 bolts and the 2 Allen heads in that fender/cowl area, those are pretty self explanatory. Biggest issue is cutting away the seam sealer and or under coating on the inside. Big utility knife and cut deep. Don't miss the top bolt on the top of the fender support.
