55 Chevy truck.

Will the doors and front clip off a 58 truck work on a 55 truck?
Thank you,
Steven

Re: 55 Chevy truck.

doors will work, the fenders...well different style (4 lights not 2) and the front of the frame is 2" longer on a 58, so IDK if the radiator suport will be in the same place.

Re: 55 Chevy truck.

Does the 55 hood and grill fit the 57 ?

Re: 55 Chevy truck.

57 fenders have a couple flat spots stamped into the grill surround to mount the larger 57 grill. hoods work but 57 hood has the wind splits stamped in. upper and lower grill supports are different.
