I have wondered this too - just never asked.

I am thinking that 69-72 will all interchange for sure - but it is those other 2 years that I wonder about. Mainly '67.

The grilles will interchange between all years, the differences are in the top bar attached to the grille and hood latch.

What can you do about that?
Use the 69-72 top bar with the earlier year grilles? Would that even look right?

The top bar goes with the`69-up hood.You can remove the top bar to use on a67/68.it`s just riveted.The`69-ups also had fender brows to match.The`68 used a smaller/narrow brow on the fancier trucks.`67s had no outer trim at all.
