Re: Converting '68 GMC to '67-'68 Chevy grill

Wrong forum? Its a project...thats part of a build?
Or do I need to start a "build" thread only in this forum?

I guess maybe it looks like a grill swap only on the surface but I am in the middle of placing my '68 GMC's body on my '72 C10's chassis, for the benefits of a V8, turbo350, front discs, bigger rear drum brakes, and rear coil suspension. Then I'll start the tear down of the '68 frame, get it blasted and powdercoated, and build it up with mostly new parts...while I'm still able to use the truck (the '68 body on the '72 chassis). Someday when the chassis is ready, '68 body and '68 frame will reunite.
