    "If memory serves (12+ years ago) ...small tabs hold it in place."

    Obviously ....it didn't!

    you wouldn't necessarily need to undo rusty fuel tank bolts if the gauge is wrong

When the hood fits well, and there are no gaps the hood, tub and the grille, then the front fenders can be attached. The hood needs to latch to hold the fenders in position.
