Change the Front from 72 to 68
What do i need to change the front from my 72 to an 68 front?
Does the metal parts fit to my truck? Like change fenders, hood and grille. Or is it not that simple? |

Re: Change the Front from 72 to 68
You would need a complete front clip. Fenders, hood, radiator suppoert, grill and bumper.

You will also need the 67-68 rubber body mounts they are different in size compared to the 60-72. Or you could possibly cut down the old ones.

You might consider the '67 also. No side marker lights for a nice clean look.
