'68 vs. '69 radiator support
I have a lead on a fairly decent '69 radiator support. Unfortunately, my car is a '68. Are they way different or can they be swapped fairly easy? Any first hand experience or advice is welcomed.

Thanks, Mike

i believe they have different headlamp housing mounting points and the hood tooth were the hood latch is different. maybe someone with more knowledge will chime in.

If the price is right... you might snag the nice 1969 one for trade stock.

Both good ideas. I'll go back to verify its condition and price and make a decision from there. Thanks for the input.

There's another post from a guy here on Classicolds that's looking for a 69 core support:
