Title: 86 to 74 body

Sup guys,I was wondering if anyone knows if the 74 fender will fit on a 86 truck?

It will bolt on, but your hood hinges won't. Are you wanting to totally swap the front ends over or just replace a fender?

I was thinking on replacing the whole front end for the 74 style..

If you search the site you will find multiple discussions on this topic. You will need everything from the older truck from the doors forward. Including the wiper arm stubs.

When I had my '74, I entertained the idea of swapping the front clip for something out of the '80s... Now I'm kinda missing the old round headlights.
