69 grill on a 68 front end?

I have a 1970 c10. Came with brand new 1968 hood, front fenders, and used 68 radiator mount. Just bought a 1969 aluminum grill. Once I convert the front end with all the new 68 parts listed, will this 69 grill work/fit up?

If I leave the front end a 1970, would the 69 grill work then?

Yes, 69 and 70 are compatible, but if you have everything for a 68 it would be worth finding a grill if thats the style you are wanting. Keep an eye out on the parts forum, they popup occasionally. Or come see some of us in August at Carlisle
