Are Chevy and GMC fenders the same?

I need to know if the fenders and core support are the same for 67-68 chevy and GMC c10s. I know the grills are different and I doubt the core supports are the same due to the dual headlights on the GMC, but maybe the fenders will work. I hope you guys can help.

Check the FAQ's or GMC Paul's website.
I'm pretty sure the fenders will interchange(67-68Chev) with the GMC and also pretty sure the core support will if you remove the spot welded lite buckets

The 67 on both trucks are the same fender. The 68 chevy fender is the same as the 68-71 GMC from what I can remember. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Its been in the tech articles for years...heres the link and the post article itself.

http://www.67-72chevytrucks.com/tech/fenders.html

you want it easy...

69 to 72 Chev fenders are unto themselves.

67 fenders are the same for GMC or Chev with no marker lights.

a 68 Chev and 68-72 GMC fenders are the same with marker light holes.


Here's the tech post anyway.

Fender Interchangeability 67-72 Chevy & GMC Pickups
By Rod
Here's the real low down on the fenders. 1967 fenders are interchangeable between GMC or Chevrolet this if you want fenders without marker lights. 1968 Fenders are interchangeable between GMC and Chevrolet but theses will have marker light holes. Here's where the difference is. 1968-1972 GMC fenders are all the same and will fit any such year. As I said before you can put a 68 Chev fender on a GMC and it is identical to the 68-72 GMC fender. A 67 Chev fender would fit any year GMC 67-72 but you would lose the marker light hole. Chevrolet Fenders are interchangeable between 1969-1972 They are very different from GMC fenders of this era. Chevrolet fenders are recessed at the front of the fender to accept the full grill from 1969-1972 Chevrolet grill. Mind you it will bolt on to a GMC rad cradle but you would not be able to put on the Eyebrow piece on the Fender that GMC's have. It looks rather stupid this way. For you would likely have the GMC top bar across the hood and a recessed area for the Chev Grill. And not be able to mount the fender eyebrow pieces typical of the 69-72 GMC. 1967 and 1968 GMC and Chev Fenders Eyebrows are the same and are for 67 and 68 Chev and GMC trucks. Then only 69-72 GMC fender Eyebrows will only fit a GMC fender. You can put the 67-68 trim on a GMC 69-72 fender but not on a 69-72 Chev fender.

Re: Are Chevy and GMC fenders the same?

I have a 1972 c15, the front right passenger fender was replaced and the eyebrow piece from my c15 will not fit fender as you say. What would be my options on replacing the top trim above grille and eyebrows with a 72 gmc c15 drivers side fender and a chevy c10 passengers side fender. I'm lost.
