What are you considering doing? Changing just the hood and grill and filling the park light holes is one approach.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | | | | Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 21 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Aug 2007 Posts: 21 | No, I have a '53 GMC thats had the hood and grille change and someone said it would have been hard to to.
I left the lights there. I'm thinking of going back and am wondering if maybe the guy that had it before me and did the swap made it to where I can't go back, or is it actually an easy swap? | | | | | Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 5,152 | If it still has the GMC fenders with the lights in it, then I suspect the changes aren't that big a deal.
Hood, grill and splash pan for sure. Beyond that it really depends on what the previous owner did to adapt the parts. It may be pretty easy to put back.
