I have been wanting to do a front end swap on my 81 chevy. It had a phantom grill and prefer the factory grill with dual headlights from 83-87
Which would be the easiest to do and what would I need?
-
so you want to swap the dual head lights and what?
-
Right now it has single headlights and fogs on the bumper but I want to make it dual headlights like from 86
-
It is going to take a complete core support to do the swap and new front bumper
-
Why a new front bumper? How hard will it be to swap the core support

You don't "need" a new front bumper just that the turn signals for a 1986 is in the grill. You don't have to keep it there, just made an assumption that you wanted to go all 1986 quad headlights

Oh okay I was thinking just keeping the turn signals on the bumper and just have the 86 grill for looks but working headlights, how hard is the core support swap?

Not hard if you aren't working with a rust bucket.

theres litterally like 3 or 4 bolts on each side and then 2 or 3 on the bottom on each side to take it off. you can do it in about 2 hours, its just taking everything off that takes a while.
