Riv front clip interchange

has anyone ever put the front clip from a 71 riviera onto a 73?
i have been contemplating trying to do it so im wondering if any one would have some advice or am i at alone on this one?
thanks in advance

I have no if that would work or not. I know that none of the sheet metal will exchange from a 71-72 onto a 73. I think the hoods are different to.

 

The front clip will work but you have to use a 71 or 72 bumber, hood is the same.

 

well there you go then...

 

Curtis. Do you need a '73 front clip? I will be parting out a '72 and a '73. The '73 front fenders are almost rust free.

 

i need the rear fenders if you have them

I've got a 66 front end on my 67 but I'm sure that doesn't help you much :laugh:

I was curious as to why you are considering this. Looks, difficulty finding a 73, etc ??

 

i was considering it because i would like a car that is a little different than everyone else's

Re: ???????

Here's a 1972 Riviera with a 1973 front:

So if it will also work the other way around :TU:

 

Re: ???????

You should hook up with my neighbor who has a 67 front clip on a 66

 

Ummmmmm...... you've got a fricken BOATTAIL RIVIERA. How much more "different" do you want???
