So I'm not having any luck using the FAQ search, or the main search engine. As a newbie to the 67-72's, I feel like this may be a dumb question, are 67-68 front fenders the same as 69-72 fenders? One of my friends says yes, and one says no.. Since I don't have the orig front clip, I have nothing to compare to, but I did get two 71 fenders with the Burb. They're not very nice, but better than nothing for now, but I don't want to count on them if they wont work with my 68 rad support and hood. I don't have the hood yet and my rad support and grill need some finishing before I bolt everything together, otherwise I'd just try to see what fits..

67-68 chev fenders are the same as 67-72 GMC. Of course the 67's do not have marker lights. It is very easy to tell the diference. The 69-72 chev fenders have indentations where the aluminum grills overlap the fender. The other ones are totally smooth.

Great find on your burb! That's pretty good for an up north old truck I'm guessing! Rust wise I mean.

Well the rad support has the single headlight bucket, so I'm assuming the fenders are also Chevy, but it was a parts truck, so who knows. What do they look like to you?

Those are definately 69-72 chev fenders. The rad saddle also looks like a 69-72 piece. The easiest way to tell is if there are threaded holes along the bottom for the splashpan to mount to. I can't see them in the pics.

I also might have some decent fenders in storage, I'll go have a look this week.

67 enders are the same as 68 minus the marker light hole but 69-72 CHEVY fenders are different. 68-72 GMC fenders are all the same. the difference is in the leading edge of the fender. Chevys didn't get the trim, so no holes. GMCs had a piece of trim there so they did. there my be other differences as well. I am sure others will chime in if there is, but I know those. nice save BTW

So basically don't put GMC fenders on a Chevy unless you want to fill a bunch of holes.

Up here decent original fenders are so hard to find, I don't worry about trim holes. I just worry about rust holes.

I have some fenders that I bought off of Rory before he shut down. But I have not had the opportunity to test them. I believe they are from counterpart.

No, I think I might have some decent originals in storage. But with the cold I haven't been able to check.
