GMC- Chevy Front-end conversion update - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Nice transformation!

I made the switch to 67 sheet metal also, from a 71. I have the cowl hood too, but not sure if I like it. I wish the raised portion was flatter on top longer, rather than sloping down gradually all the way to the front. I am still considering modifying it that way, maybe... The red 68 in the "Stoked Out" thread has this type of cowl hood, it looks cool.

Keep up posted with pictures!

Your truck looks great with the new front end!

Hey that looks great, I like that bumper, gives it a custom/modern flair.

i like it..i prefer the gmc grills but to each there own...your work looks good..now if you change everything to chevy, i would assume you are doing the tail gate, you can say you own a chevy, but what about the title. how do you change that,,or do you swap vin numbers....nor something legal like that...

jkaylor68gmc · 03-07-2007, 12:12 PM

I don't care what the title says, the vin numbers match my cab thats all that counts. I sold me bed to Ron586 so I am looking for a fleetside, I plan on buying a new tailgate anyway
