Swapping front clip?
What all is involved with changing the front clip of an 80's model to one from the 70's? Is it just a simple unbolt and bolt the 70's on, or is there major fabrication that is going to have to be done?

Re: Swapping front clip?
It's a bolt on deal it requires modifications to go the other way as 70 trucks aren't cut for the hinges on the firewall. Keep in mind the wiper posts need to be swapped as Well because the 70s ones are shorter to tuck under the hood
