I have done some research. We are missing the hood pivot. I believe this is what it's called. Is it also true the chevy one won't work? Any help in where I can find one to get the truck back together would be greatly appreciated.

Do you mean the hinge in the center between the two halves?

I have both and can send you pictures of both so you know what to look for. PM me. Dave
