Yes, it is possible, You just need the fenders,grille, Radiator support, and hood, and inner fenders! Just take the whole front clip off the donor. Unbolt the fenders from the cab 4 or 6 bolts don't remember which, unhook the wires, and unbolt the two bolts from under the radiator support and remove the entire thing with either the hood on or remove it first your choice!!!

Probably only cost you about $600 for the whole front clip. That's what stopped me from doing it, but all you need is the fenders, grill, core support, and hood. That's it as far as I know. The fenders should bolt right up. It's pretty self explanatory except for lining everything up. I'm no expert though, so someone else might tell you something completely different.

Personally, I would do it. I think the front end on the 67-68's look way sweeter than the 69-72. If I were you I'd jump on it. It shouldn't be that hard to swap at all. Unless, your 69 is a long bed too. In that case I'd buy the 67', (because you only be out $200 which is nothing for a '67) and find a 71-72 short bed and swap the front ends. I just like the shortbeds better too. That way you'd end up, hopefully, with p/s, p/b, front discs, and 5 lugs to boot for the newer rim styles. Just my two sents worth though.

You say that the 67 is straight? If I were you I would jump on it for $200 and keep the 69 as is. That's just my opinion since they don't make these trucks anymore.
