79 Grill and Headlight Bezel on an 86? Possible?
« on: March 23, 2016, 10:59:33 am »
Hey guys,

Will someone tell me, is it possible to install a 79 grill, headlight bezel, and new lamps onto an 86' C10? Or will it require structural changes to the front end of the 86?

No. Not without structural changes. Everything that is different about the two styles means the mounting features are also different. Along with fender, hood, radiator support and hood latch releases.

You will need EVRYTHING from the doors forward, including the windshield wiper stubs if you want to go with 79 grille / light style.
