all will fit ?????

[QKENUF4U]

just had a bud here thats into the 67-72 trucks also. hes telling me that all the fenders from 67-72 will fit my 71 without problems (other than one little hole for the rad support) this true ?

[Longhorn Man]

nope, not true
69 - 72 chevy ONLY. (assumin yours is a chevy.)
On the GMC side... yes, 67 - 72 all the same except the marker light missing in 67

Tell your bud to join up!

The problem that Andy speaks of is the indentation for the grille on 69-72 Chevy fenders. The 67-68 Chevy and 67-72 GMC fenders do not have this indentation.

[QKENUF4U]

so could i use 67 GMC fenders on my 71 chevy or no (because of the grill shape ?) im doing away with the marker lights so it sure would be nice to not have to weld up those holes.

you cant (well.... fit properly) 67 fenders on a 71 chev.

67-68 chev and GMC fenders are the same and interchange for those years .....still remember that there is no marker light hole on a 67 though.

now think 68 chev or gmc fenders fitting upward years only GMC's (69-72)

again 67 have no marker light.

but even a 67 chev fender will fit for any year 67-72 GMC..but without a marker.

its the 69-72 Chev fenders that are recessed in the front forward edge to accept the grill surround style of the 69-72 chevy grills..while the gmc fenders trim in the accessorized gmc's used fender eyebrow systems, which just mount by holes in the front fender edge.

The fenders from a 67-68 Chevy or 67-72 GMC will work but the problem you will have is that the 71 Chevy grill won't work with those fenders, at least not without modification.

67 Chevy & GMC


68 Chevy & 68-72 GMC


69-72 Chevy


Notice that there is no ridge on the 67 Chevy/GMC fender and that there is a ridge on the front of the 69-72 Chevy fender that the other members mentioned.

Ok i'm a bit lost too i don't mean to hijack this thread but are 67 gmc and 67 chev fenders interchageable. Reason i ask is my friend wants to make a 67 gmc a 67 chev

[Longhorn Man]

67 to 67, yes.


it's easier to look at it by part numbers;
67 chevy and GMC... one part number
68 chevy and 68 - 72 GMC ...one part number
69 - 72 chevy and NO gmc trucks ... one part number.

The differences have been listed accurately.But,the answer is "all will fit."They will bolt to the cab and core support,no matter which fender you use.But,fitting a hood or grille is where the differences matter.Core supports are also different in Chevys:67/68 & 69/72(like fenders,hood,and grille)/in GMCs:The core support is the same.The difference in cores is in the headlight locations.
