71 bed+70 cab+67 front end - Body Lines Match???

Excuse this dumb question.
I have located a very nice bed from a 71. I want to ask to make sure the body lines will be OK with a 70 cab and 67 front end? Anybody else done this?

67-72, assuming of course you want to put the time in to get everything lined up.The original fit and finish were not as good as modern vehicles.

Go for it... it will make for one sweet ride! All the parts are mixed match, the front ends are a little different between 67-68 and 69-72, as well as GMC vs. Chevrolet.

The '71 bed will have side marker lights and the '67 Nose won't. A '68 nose will look like a '67 but will have the side markers/reflectors.

Everything else will bolt/line up fine. - You will need the '67/'68 Rad Support if you are going with a '67 nose.
