radiator support/lights

[dbrock]

Greetings everyone.

I received some great advice from this forum once before so I would like to try another question.


I am rebuilding a 1981El Camino. I prefer the
Double headlights of the 82 and after years. I do know that the cowl and lights have to be changed, of course.
will the original radiator support work or
will I need to get one from a later model? The results can influence my ability to do this a great deal.

Thanks in advance for reading my post and to anyone that answers.

i know you have to change the fenders and header panel but im 90% sure the core supports in all g bodies are the same. im sure someone else will chime in

If I remember right, you can put the later nose to your old core, But the old nose won't fit to the newer core.
