68 Chevy front fenders.....what matches - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72freak · 09-01-2006, 10:23 AM

I have a 68 front clip that I am going to use in a future project. One fender has some damage. I have several other fenders in my collection....what other year fenders will work and still be able to use the front end of the 68?
I thought that any 67-72 GMC fenders would work...is that true?

Thanks

68 -72 GMC fenders will have the turn signal cutout you need, otherwise 68 chevy is your only other choice. If you're "shaving" the markers, 67's of either make will work too

I checked with a source at Goodmark and he said..........

1967-68 Chevy and 1967-72 GMC fenders interchange, but 1967 originally did not have side markers.

1969-72 Chevy fenders are different and do not interchange with GMC.

This is what I thought.......sound right to yall?

Ooops, yeah, I worded my post kinda confusing. I meant to say that the 68-72 gmc fenders will fit a 68 chevy with the turn signals in them, but the only chevy fender that will fit will be the 68 with turn signals and of course the 67's of both models will interchange with your '68, just no turn signal.

69-72 chevy are for 69-72 chevy only

Looks like you have your hands full in projects there. Another C10 in the background, and what is that green truck, an International Scout?
