front clip suggestions

I am looking to do a front clip and would like suggestions on the best yrs./body style to look for. I am 1.5 hrs from the nearest wrecking yard so suggestion on what to look for would help before I get there.

I have a 49- measures 27" wide just behind the front axle.

Thanks

Would a 79 El Camino one work?

Yes it will. It's a G-body. Good luck on your search!
