Please advise! Thanks! | | | | | Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 23 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2007 Posts: 23 | I spoke to a guy this week who confirmed that the pickup fenders between Chevy and GMC are the same, which I assume means at least the front fenders on the panel will also be the same.
Any one out there who can confirm anything about the rears? | | | | | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,780 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 1,780 | I am going to take a guess at this one. The later panels shared the same fenders between GMC and Chevrolet. The 1948/53 Chevrolet and GMC rear fenders are the same, the front fenders are identical except for the parking lights on the GMC. I would say that the earlier panels, GMC and Chevrolet used the same fenders too.
The changes in the bodies were subtle, mostly in the grilles and hood and different emblems and ornaments. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,820 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,820 | The running boards are different. The GMC running boards have a diamond plate tread like design stamped into them. The Chevrolet running boards have the raised front to rear full length 1/2" or so wide treads. Joe
