Convert 85 to 73-80 front end? What parts?
I would like to convert the front end on my 85 to the 73-80 front end. What parts do I need? So far I think I need the
fenders hood wiper cowl wiper arm assembly and mounts (under cowl) wiper arms bumper bumper brackets grill headlight buckets and mounts piece between bumper and grill inner fenders Things I am really not sure If I need or not. Radiator support (I hope not) hood hinges hood latch (would like to keep the 85 inside release if possible) Anything else? Does anybody want my old front end? Mike |

DUH! Well, you could put everything listed and just swap out the years and ignore the PN#'s
Basically you need a complete front clip.you need: core support core support brackets hood latch hood hinges wiring for headlights/turn signals turn signal buckets turn signal lens Jack/handle washer bottles overflow battery tray you don't need: pre-81 doesn't use a wiper cowl

He's wanting to switch from the newer '87 clip to the older style '73-87 clip, not vice versa. Mike, I may have some parts I could sell ya for really cheap if you let me know exactly what you need. I'm looking to get rid of a lot of stuff and wouldn't want much money at all for any of it.

I would like to and I appreciate the offer but you are a 15 hour drive from me. Kind of removes the effective in cost effective. Mike |

Not if they're small parts that can be shipped.
