Grille Surround Differences

Im working on getting a front clip back on my 62 burb, and it came with a real nice grille surround with a 64-66 grille on it which I assume it what year the surround came from..But is there any difference in how a 62 grille would mount into the 64-66 grille surround? Or will it bolt up? Havent really dealt with early 60-63 stuff. Any help would be great.

I believe you will have to drill a couple of holes in the surround for the 62 grille, otherwise it should be the same.

... and the 63-66 surround has big notches for the frame horns, which the 60-62 does not.
it will still fit, but you will probably be able to see the holes over the bumper...
