Re: chevy???
As Palf stated, the pic looks to be a 68 , because of the side-markers, so the parts should fit. 67 and 68 Chevy fenders will fit 67-72 GMC. 69-72 Chevy will only fit if you use the complete front clip, because of differences in the hood and radiator support.
Anybody, if I wrong on any of this, please correct me. Lots of patina there.

Re: chevy???
If it was sitting in my back yard, and my daily driver was wrecked; those parts would have already been on my truck.

Re: chevy???
It will work, but won't have the GMC grill marker light cutouts. Your front marker lights be be covered up just a hair, but should work.

Re: chevy???
Swap the whole front clip. You'll be happier in the long run.

Re: chevy???
x2 --- swap the whole thing -- your Uncle will probably not even notice judging by the looks of it The 67 and 68 Chevy front end is most people's unanimous favorite anyway- at the very least, you'll have a core support, replacement bumpers and hood are attainable and reasonably cheap, even on your DG salary level, if the sheetmetal there is not all good (not me - i actually like the frog-eyed GMC's- but people tell me i'm weird all the time too) ![]()

Re: chevy???
I wish I had an Old Uncle with a '68 Chevy, he just has a '65 GTO with a 421 dual quad.
Oh well>

Re: chevy???
A diamond in the rough........why cant I find a 68 tucked away in someones back yard like that? get out the chain saw.... or better yet, drop some gas in the tank and start it up and floor it, hopefuly it wont bring the tree down on top of the cab........and if its got posi, might just break free,,,, yeah right.....love shots like that

Re: chevy???
The truck has been wrecked, the top has been crushed into cab from the wreck. The wreck was back in the 80's.

Re: chevy???
Wind your way through the weeds, get inside to the glovebox, open the door and see what it had. And take a bunch more pictures.
And be VERY nice to your Uncle!! |
