Early to Late Front Grille Swap

[Inka’d02]

Hey Guys,

I am toying around with the idea of using late model grilles on my 73'. I know the late to early grill swap is a lot of work; has anyone done the reverse? If so do you have any tips? I like the idea of low maintenance plastic grilles and kidney grille.

If it is feasible I would be interested in a used grille set. The kidney grille could be in ruff shape since I would buy a new one after mocking was complete.

Thanks

not sure about the swap, but i do have an old later style kidney grill, with some dings and dents in it. email me if you want pics etc
