Um from the top of my head you need to weld in a new radiator support, new fenders, grille, header panel, headlights, bumper, valance, all the brackets and nuts and bolts. Try searching its been documented a couple times.

Put a 94-99 Mazda front end on it. It'll be a little easier. One of the guys on here put a Ranger front end on his Mazda.
