Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

I personally like the 67-68 front ends. They just look smoother to me.

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

I like the 67 Chevy for the grill, no marker lights and the sloped hood.

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

Even though I have a 70cst and I wouldn't sell it (well maybe for $1,000,000) ... I do like the 67-68 front ends.

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

You have opened a can of worms...

As posted above, it comes down to personal preference.

My $.02.... I prefer the 69-72 vs. the 67-68 front end styling. As far as choosing between the 69-70 and the 71-72 I wouldn't turn either away.

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

I like all 67-72s but I like the 67 best because of the sloped hood no marker lights they just flow better

I have to agree here. I too have a 70 that I will never part with, but really do like those 67-68 nose's.
Maybe the next one will be a 67-68, Every body should have 2 right !!!!

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

I have a 68, and I love it, besides 68, I think 72 has the best overall look.

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

67 for both Chevy and GMC. The beauty of the truck isn't interrupted with the side markers poking out like the 68's

I'm probably in the minority as I like the 69-70 best, but I also know I'm right!

Re: 67 thru 72 which year has the best front end

I have a '72 so, of course, the '72's look the best.

By the way, is it too late to add a poll to the top of this thread?
