1967/68 gmc front clip splash guard/gravel guard question

Are the front grill gravel/splash guards on the 67 and 68 GMC's the same as the 67/68 chevys? or is it a GMC specific part?

I'm trying to put together a list of what all I need to convert a 67/68 Chevy to the 67 GMC grill.
  • 67/68 GMC Support
  • 67 GMC Grill
  • GMC headlight buckets
  • Headlights
  • 67/68 Grill top bar
  • GMC Gravel guard?

Here's what I have so far. Nice support with latch and support bar

The GMC has holes for the turn signal wiring.
Also the hood latch and center grill support is different.

You have everything you need.
A holesaw will fix a 67-68 chevy splash apron.

yes, no, maybe. I traded my daily driver dodge for a car so now I'm without a running truck... The current plan is to find a decent running 67-72 driver to use to haul parts, tow, etc. It's going to end up with a 67 GMC clip. I want a big back glass loaded 67 GMC. Doubt I find one, so I'm just collecting parts so I can piece one together.

Small windows 67' are cool too.
