Identify these fenders please
I bought this 1969 GMC with no grille attached. The previous owner put on aftermarket fenders. I think they may be 1969-1972 Chevy fenders. In that case I'm not sure if a GMC grill will fit? Ignore the deleted side markers, I know they are not 1967 fenders.

Re: Identify these fenders please
Have not delved into this myself, so with others insights I speak. Most aftermarket fenders and grilles need modification to get things lined up and fitting correctly so......

Re: Identify these fenders please
Is that a TR behind the truck?

Does that mean I will not be able to fit a GMC grill? I know that GMC put the same fenders on from 68-72 while chevy changed. The huge problem is that the core support on it is a 69GMC. |

I have a source on some original fenders. I guess I'll just have to teach myself to paint again. The budget to pay someone else is already gone. But, while I'm at it I may put a 67 hood on those GMC fenders I plan to buy. |

Re: Identify these fenders please
And of coarse a 67 grille.
I really learned my lesson on this one, Never paint until every thing has been fitted. |

Re: Identify these fenders please
Of you consign a 67-68 hood, you'll need to use a narrower 67-68 grill top filled bar as well. I have an extra one of needsd

I can't quite figure out the 67/68 GMC grilles. I think 68 used a narrower top and thinner eyebrows. Do the 67 GMC's have the narrow top with no eyebrows at all? |
