Question.....has any of the vendors come up with a 67-68 style grill that will adapt to 69-72 entire front clip ? lots of mods would be needed because of the surround not sure is even possible ....

they also offer a 67-68 style sloped hood that's "supposed" to be a bolt-on for the 69-72
the combo "might" look pretty good but it's hard to beat the classic style of the original 67-68 front....

So with this aftermarket grille, you don't have to run '67-'68 fenders or change out the radiator support?

No , but I believe you do need to cut up a surround. It’s not clear but I think the price is just the inner grill
