Yet another front clip question
I currently own a 74 chevy as most know.

AS IT IS NOW. **By looking and reading lmc's part#'s-what year.... so. by the looks of lmc's pictures, it appears i would need: 2 81-87 fenders 1 81-87 hood will i need??: 2 81-87 inner renders???? or can i even keep my 73-80 grill and all that the same?? thanks!!! (i searched, no results) |

Re: Yet another front clip question
you have to change it as the entire front clip (hood, grill, core support, hood release set up, fenders) as far as anything I have ever been around. I know I dont know much so there may be a loop hole I have missed. Just dont count on it.

Re: Yet another front clip question
You do know that this is a backwards style step in most people's opinion, as the market is s**t hot for '73-80 box bodies right now, right? And the change to the 81-up clip would only be a negligible aero advantage
.............. but ----- its your truck -- i like both front end styles myself ---- but i personally wouldnt experiment with interracial inter-mingling of clips and bodies (except the '89-92 burb/blazer clip on mid to late 80's trucks -- or putting a 67-68 clip on a 69-72, but thats a different story)

Re: Yet another front clip question
well i guess its a good thing i dont care about most people opinion then huh?
read it again, im not looking for the 81+ FRONT CLIP. im looking for the FENDERS only the fenders. aaand the hood. because id have too. the only diff /w/ the hood is it is slightly less tall in the front. other than that, its identical to the eye, not the tape measure.. ![]() Quote:
