Hard to tell by your picks,But,i would have to say by looking the bottom piece that the front fender bolts to,(has hole on the side for bottom fender bolt to bolt to and is at bottom of the new piece) looks to me that maybe from all your rust out it got "pushed" upwards, it looks to me that it needs to come down for the new piece you have to fit.
Did you by chance have the cab sitting by itself on the floor and maybe that piece got tweeked and pushed up? I only say this as my 58 did!
Good luck and wishing you the best on it!

Got to thinking you might hold the front fender up to the cab if you can and see if the lower fender attachment point lines up, that would
tell you if if that bracket needs to come down. Hope this helps you!
