Can anyone tell me if this fender will work on my 72 blazer?

The red one is off my 72 blazer, I got the other at a pick a part, (I was told it was off a 72 blazer) but they look dif to me. Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.

Sorry brother, the orange one will not work. It belongs on a 1968 chevy, or a 68-72 GMC.

Did you pull the fender yourself? It does look different to me. You can see the crease for the outer grill shell on the red one, but I don't see it on the orange one.

I did not pull it, the place had one just sitting as somebody had returned it, I didn't have mine to compare it to. So I how do I order or know which fender will work? I have a 72 blazer. Anything gmc will not work? Also a 68 will not work?

I'm not so sure that gmc fenders would work..I think they are more slanted similar if not the same as 67-68 chevy trucks. Check a parts catalog to see what fenders work.

I'm positive GMC fenders will not work, They are the same as 67-68. This is a common Q asked in many threads for a long time.

I have been educated... Not much of a GMC guy for those years, never cared for the look of the double head lights. It is good to know if you want to swap your front clip out for a 67-68 look the GMC fenders would work for that I suppose.

***I deleted my previous response so there would be no confusion regarding this question***
