70-72 front clip on a 78?

[SShultz]

First off... Hey everyone! I'm new here and just got into a 1978 burb with a 454, 4 speed, and I'm gonna be doing some major mods to it. One thing I would really like is to have a 70-72 gmc front clip. I guess I'm just a sucker for quad headlights. Has this ever been done?
Thanks

you best be good at sheet metel work. or get a custom grill kit from a vendor here for the same basic look . his kit gives offroad lights in about the same place. then wiremesh for filler.

Which vendor sells that kit? Do you have a link to that thread?

completly different body styles...definitly not a bolt on & if you did get it on there none of the bodylines will match...imho...it would look f'd up!

Thanks for the imput guys.. I think I may eventually go with one of those hartley grills. but to ease your minds I won't be trying to put a different front end on it!
