68 Chevy front clip question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

What would it take to change a 69-72 Chevy truck over to a '68 front clip (front end)? I know that the fenders, core support, bumper, and hood are all reproduced. What parts are not reproduced and would have to be bought used? Isn't the Grill the main thing? How about the hood latch and grill brace?

You covered it but try finding grill mouldings and headlight bezels that fit. Oh you also will need the brackets for the bumper and the headlight buckets.
