you need the entire front cap. coresupport, hood, hood latch, everything.

Hood, fenders, core support, inner fenders, whole shebang. The hood on the older 73-80 mounts on the fenders, so no worry about cab interference... Otherwise you'll be set.

If you look at my thread "rebuilding my 1977 plow truck " It covers all of putting an old front on a newer body. there is more to it than just changing the sheetmetal
