68 or 69 headlight buckets
 
I bought a 68 grille a while back and what was supposed to be A 68 radiator support. The bottom of the support was shot but what I mainly needed was the headlight buckets. I am restoring a 71 GMC with a 68 Chevy front end on it and my support was good. So I drilled out the spot welds and cleaned all the old flaking paint off of the buckets and the have 69 stamped in them. Are the headlight buckets the same for the 68 and 69? Thanks in advance, Carl.

67-68s don't have buckets welded to the support

So the headlight bucket is mounted the the radiator support without the bracket. Does anyone have any pics of this and how the adjusters are mounted to the core support? Thanks, Carl
