Grille and Fender choices - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys, this is what I got going.

I am currently driving a
68 c10 longbed fleetside with all the parts including fenders, grille and hood.

I just bought a
69 c10 cab, with 71 disk brake shortbed frame.
I just purchased inner and outer fenders for 71-72 with the core support and cowl. (Thank you, "Wasted Income"). I almost have a complete truck

My question is, if you had a choice between the 67-68 style hood and fenders/grille, or the 69-72 style hood fenders/grille?
the 67-68 has the grille confined inside the fenders, where the 69-72 grille runs all the way around to the fenders and grille.

If I pull the hood fenders and grill from the 68, I would be complete, but if I keep the 71 fenders, I will have to find the whole grille assemble and the hood.

So, which combo do you like and why?
