89 Jimmy ?

Hey guys.Been a while.I gotta 89 Jimmy last year and love it. I had a 74 back in high school and loved it to. I must admit I like the tilt,cruise,ac,pw and pdl of the 89. Both of them have sm465. Gotta love that tranny. I do prefer the old round head lights from 73-79. I have read of guys going from the 70's to 89-91's but not vice versa. Could the headlight bezels be changed, or would it involve a donor hood,inner and outer fenders raditotor support,etc. My stuff is in good shape,open to trades. Opinions?

Everything from the cowl forward is different and must be swapped. The wiper assembly has to be swapped to the early style as well.
