Well I have been kicking this idea around a bit since I am going to have to replace the RH fender on the 72 Dart anyways.

Is it possible to use the one piece 73-76 Dart fenders with the the stock 72 hood and a 70-71 grille? What mods would have to be done to the fenders to make this work or is it even possible?

Thanks,
Joe

How would you get the 70 grill to work with the 73-76 front bumper? The 70-72 front bumper won't fit the 73 and up fenders just by looking at some pictures on ebay. The 73+ bumper is a lot taller since the car doesn't have a valance like the 70-72 did.

I would use the 72 front bumper and I figure that at least I would have to modify the lower section of the fenders where the bumper meets the fender. I would also have to add the provisions for the valance. It may be to much work for it to be worth it but I had to ask and it was worth a shot.
