I don't think it will since the fenders and hood for a 67/68 are different than 69-72.

No it won't, fenders, hood, and I believe the core support (not 100% sure) are different on the 67-68's from the 69-72's. I learned that the hard way a few years back when I bought a 68 fender for mine and didn't realize they were different where the grille fits the fender.

Re: 67 grille fit a 72 truck??

Here is a thread from a few days back from where a guy was asking about converting his from a GMC grill to 71 Chevy grill. Breaks down the information a little further from what was said in the other comments.

Sorry for the dup, apparently my Afghanistan internet thinks you needed the information twice.

Re: 67 grille fit a 72 truck??

You have to change the core-support, fenders, and hood to add a 67-68 front grille. It can be hard to find any of those in decent condition. I got lucky. Took me a year to find a oem nice hood though.

Yeah, the whole clip is different. .. BUT, it is possible to do a 67-68 hood on a 69+ grille shell.
