60/61 hood/grill on a 62-66?

Hello all,

I am currently in the hunt for either a 60/61 4-door pick up or a Suburban which are hard to find - I am beginning to believe the 4-door is just unobtainable.

* Anyway, will a 60/61 hood/grill fit (rather easily) on a 62-66?

Thanks, hope to find my project truck soon as I have a fresh Cadillac 472 engine and T400 tranny sitting around doing nothing!

It will fit, but you will need to make sure you get the matching upper and lower hood latches so they mate up.

Good luck on your search man. I think those 60-61 trucks are real cool.
It's just to bad people hat those cool 60-61 hoods and have trashed so many of them.
