swapping 70 to 68 GMC hood?
I know it's been asked before. Will a 67 or 68 GMC hood fit a 69 thru 72 GMC? Would all that would have to be done, is remove the grill bar off the 69/72 grill, and then use a 67/68 GMC hood bar? Are the grill eyebrows the same for all years? Just giving this a little thought, and needed to ask.....

Yes.. all you have to do is use the 67-68 upper grille bar ... AND... 67 68 eyebrow mouldings as the 69 - 72 ones are much wider and taller

Re: swapping 70 to 68 GMC hood?
Aren't the fenders different. I seem to remember the fenders and hood won't match because of the difference in the grills?

All 68 - 72 GMC fenders are the same.. all 67 fenders both Chev and GMC are the same.. 69 - 72 chev fenders are the odd balls

Re: swapping 70 to 68 GMC hood?
That's what I thought about the GMC fenders, being the same. Is the GMC hood latch the same for all years?
