71 Fenders on a 70 Barracuda - 02/21/23 10:09 AM
Will 1971 Barracuda Front Fenders fit a 1970 Barracuda? I wanted to rplace mine with the 71 gill type fenders.

yes they will bolt on. been done many times.
you will also need 71 grill and related parts. the 70 grill won't work, 70's had 2 headlights 71 has 4.
you will have to cut out the headlight mounting parts and switch them between the fenders. i THINK this will work. the edge of the fender that meets the grill might be different.
you COULD buy gilled patch panels and weld them in your 70 fenders. i think they still sell this part.

The 1970 fenders look the best.

It would be easier and probably cheaper just to weld in the gill patch panels then having to replace the entire grille section (or cut out to 2 headlights)... Here is the link for them..
