81 pickup grill swap

Hey everyone. I picked up an 81 chevy 4x4 2500 today on the cheap. Thing is it's got what I was told is an 86 gmc front clip on it. With the 4 headlights. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of this.

Which years are the grills interchangeable. I have an 80 that's toast but has some decent parts. And I have another truck I think is an 82 but honestly I'm not sure haha.

Any tips are appreciated

It's the one with the 8 tone paint hehe. I call it Lurch

The grey ones my 76, she's awesome.

Re: 81 pickup grill swap

I believe 81-82 are only interchangeable
Because they 2 have turn signals in bumper. 83-87 had smooth. Unless with turn signals in grille.

The multicolor truck in the pic looked to have an 88-90 Blazer/Suburban front end. This would only accept 88-90.
