Guys, tell me will a GMC front (grill, headlamps) fit on a 70 C10 truck? I love the front of the GMC and I have never seen one in South Africa.

It's possible, but a lot of work. Besides the GMC grille, you need a GMC radiator wall w/ 4 headlight buckets, GMC fenders [or '68 Chevy fenders] and a GMC hood.
[When the Chevy line did the design change to the blunt nose hood body style, in the '69 Model Year, GMC kept on using some of the old style parts.]
Not to mention the tailgate. Or Right-Hand Drive.
Also some DMVs take a dim view of changing the "make" of a registered vehicle. But that's a political, not mechanical issue.
It might be cheaper to import a whole clean GMC to the "Other U-S-A."
