Steve, I think the fenders are same cept around grill opening shape and
maybe for parking lights. If rad is in diff location, maybe there is a
difference in the inside bolt spacing too. Get out the tape. The upper pa=
rt
of grill and hood are totally diff, that's why latching is diff and so on=

Other than visual, you would need fella with old parts books to see if
numbers are same between them, I feel NOT!=0D

I just bought a parts truck. Its a 1954 Chevy 3100. My suburban is a 1st=0D

between=0D
the two trucks, and the radiator is mounted in a different location, and =

hood latch is different and so is the dash.=0D

But what about the fenders? If I treat this thing as a parts truck instea=

a new project I'd like to use its fenders on the oldsub. But I don't know=

those Chevy fenders will even work on my GMC. Does anyone know?=0D

Also, I've been maintaining a web site about my OldSub, and its adventure=
