My '67 needs some new fenders and I haven't found any up in the northeast. My question is can I get some '68+ fenders and add the grills from by dented aftermarket fenders?

I don't see why not. They should bolt right up to your '67, and you can weld in some patches to close the front bumper mount slots when you're putting in the horn grills.

Thanks for the quick response! I have the fenders and this seems easy enough. I can get some '68 fenders as they aren't overly priced and just do a little patching and boom! A set of '67 fenders. When I do it I'll of course put it up here for anyone else who wants to know how to do it.
