yup, but they are likely plastic if they are brand new.

Re: Changing Front Ends Questions

I have a 79 frame / running gear with an 80-something front clip (not sure as there were 3 doner trucks). There is a 2" difference in where the rad support bolts up from the older trucks to the newer trucks, but I can't remember if it is 2" forward or back.

Personally, I like the square headlights on the square trucks. Round eyes look silly to me, but that's just personal opinion...

Re: Changing Front Ends Questions

I was just doing a little reading up, because I'm actually thinking of doing a 73-78 swap on my 84. And I noticed that if you want to put an 80 square little grille on your 74 you also need to order the lower grille/valance sheet metal (not sure what its called), it's the part that the front turn signals mount into. It's different on the square headlight models then it is on the 73-80 round eyes.

Parts #7 and #8
