Grill swap on a 71

I recently got too cozy with the tailgate of an 02 Burb and I need to replace my grill (and bumper, and weld up the frame where the tow hook "sectioned" it - ouch). I am currently running a stock grill shell that the PO trimmed and installed an aluminum tube center into. My 1st choice on the repair would be a swap to the better lines of a 67 clip, but that's not gonna happen due to the price. I prefer the earlier grill with the wide center bar to the stock 71, but what I'd like to know is:

1) will the earlier grill fit?

2) If it does, what would be required to complete the swap? The bumper is toast as well, so I may be fabbing a bumper or replacing wit a stocker. I could do with or without lights, so the in-grill lights in the earlier grill could serve for signals.

Thanks,
Herb
