69-70 to 71-72

Can you change the look of a 69-70 to 71-72 style with a front bumper, grill surround, inner grill, headlight rings, hood bowtie (and mounting holes), and a little wiring shifting without having to do any other mods?

Yes you can. All you have to do is extend the wires for the bumper lights. Oh and hood latch is different between the two also

The hood latch? Interesting. I thought the radiator support, hood, and the middle brace thing were all the same for all 69-72. I have some 70 stuff I had planned on using in my 71's

The middle brace on the 69-70 is shaped like an F.
The 71-72 are mostly rectangular.
