Here is the parts catalog pic of the 1967/69 valance panel. You cannot use this panel with a 1970/72 grille because the 1970/72 parking lamps are longer.
However, you can use the 1970/72 panel on a 1967/69, because in 1970, Ford replaced C7TZ-17A862-A (1967/69) with D0TZ-17A862-A (1970/72).
The D0TZ panel is very hard to find NOS, I was surprised recently that I found one, as no one had had any for 5 years.
'Course by now it may be gone, as someone was asking for one a week or so ago, so I listed the info.
