Physically bolt up to frame and fenders, yes. To make work with headlights and grill, no (without modifications and parts from a 69-72 chevy core support).

To me, more problems than it's worth. Better off locating the correct Chevy replacement IMO.

1971 GMC rad support

I reciently bought a 71 GMC cord support & fenders to put on my 71 Chevy. I was going to use the fenders & core to put a 68 Chevy front clip on my 71, however the core suppt is different other than having 4 headlights. I removed the headlight buckets before I found this out, the core support is a very nice piece, but without the headlight buckets. The base stamping for the core is slightly different than a 67, 68 where the headlight buckets for a 67,68 won't mount on it. The fenders are the same however.
