What are begging to differ with? You are supporting what CC69Rat and I (& others) have already made clear. The 69-72 GMC front fender (and top) mouldings are required to make up for the shorter hood with the longer fenders. They mimmick the 69-72 Chevy grille surround that fits back "into" the shorter (indented) Chevy fenders.
