Finally found a new rear bumper support panel, bonus, it was still new-in-the-box and had never been used/sold. Ebay is a wonderful thing.
That's what goes inside of this plastic bumper cover. There's a "CHEVROLET" decal that fits into that groove, they just haven't put it on yet
The nosepiece is all assembled and ready to go back on, though it looks like I'll have to get a new headlight, the hi-beam light on the driver's side looks to have lost it's seal and is getting moisture inside, it happens to ALL those old sealed-beam headlights after enough time and they eventually fill up with condensation and become miniature square fishbowls. The grille and hood emblem are brand-new since the old ones were terribly faded and cracked.
They did get around to installing new door hardware, whoever owned the car before me just painted over the door handles, and punched out the lock cylinders (because the doors were off another car) and they were too lazy to swap the locks over, so they just mangled them so they wouldn't lock....leaving big holes in the door where they should be, I bought correct ones so I'll have locking doors again.
