will a 67 front clip fit a 71? help

Looking to start a build. I want a 67 stepside short bed, but can't find one. I did find a 71 at a good price. My question is will a 67 front clip (fenders, hood, bumper, and grill) fit a 71? thanks for your help.

If you include the core support, yes.

Yes itll work but like theyre saying, youll need the radiator support. Mainly for the headlight location.
This a real popular setup

If you do the 67 front you might wanna fill the lights on the rear fenders. Or use a 68 front end, same as the 67, just with front marker lights.
