Welcome to the board and Merry Christmas.My understanding is that they will not swap without some modifications.I have never tried it though.

Re: 67-68 and 69-72 hoods
your body lines will not line up an 67-68 the hoods are sloped in the front and the 69-72 aren't they won't line up unless you switch the front clip thats what i been told

67-68 hoods will not fit without some metal reworking....

Re: 67-68 and 69-72 hoods
A friend of mine is selling a cowl hood. He tells me it will fit 67-72 trucks. I told him they are not interchangeable.
I dont have my truck anymore, I just wanted to make sure.

Re: 67-68 and 69-72 hoods
I'm running a 67 Chevy hood with a GMC grill. The hood will bolt up but will not close unless you switch the latch to 67-68. Also the stock grill will not work. The front of the hood sits lower relative to the grill and the leading edge of the fender body lines are different.
