I have a 1973 F-100 and I was wondering if I can swap the grille from the 78-79 F-150 to the 1973 F-100. Thanks

 

Yes. Just search grille swap on this forum....tons of threads. You will need the headlight buckets and brackets, and you will have to drill 2 holes in the core support. Swaps are done all of the time.

 

Yeah for surely you can do it all the grilles from 73-79 swap over

 

Thanks, 70FOMO I planning a project 1973 F-100, and I was wondering is there a way to get a bigger view of your truck?

 

Interesting, I went from the 79 nose to a 73 nose on my truck, lol.

 

Just left click on my user name, view gallery, and then look in 73Fomo album. You will see the before picture, and the picture beside it is my photoshop rendering of what I am trying to achieve on my frame up rebuild. The truck is not complete. The chassis and suspension is complete with all new urethane bushings, rebuilt rear end, new rear brake cylinders, new front disc brakes, power brake conversion, statically lowered 4" rear with shackles and modified stock hangers welded to the frame. The front has been lowered 2" by cutting the springs. I have plans to airbags in the near future, just trying to get the truck back on its feet. The C4 has been completely rebuilt and added custom stall, 302 punched out 040 and stroked to 352 with Eagle Crank and Rods, custom machined pistons, all maching and balancing by a race shop in NC. Ported GT 40 Iron heads with 3 Angle Manley SS proflo vavles, and GT40 spring package, FMS Cobra 1.72 rockers. FMS Racing Camshaft, Proform Hei billet Distributor, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, Holley 670 cfm Street Avenger carb, FMS Shorty Headers. Dyno'd 375hp, 427lb torque@3000 rpm. Electric Fan and aluminum Fluidyne radiator. Right now bogged down in body work, doors have been shaved of handles and mirrors, custom inner fenders fabbed, hood, doors and fenders been sandblasted to bare metal and primed with epoxy primer. Working on getting the cab ready to prime now. Dash has been stripped of pad, plastic guage bezel and all vents. Center console has been fabbed in the center of dash and all holes welded and smoothed. Custom guages are almost ready to go in, just a little more sanding, filler, and primer to get like I want. Should be a nice smooth look. Anyway...don't get in a hurry and just take your time....I still have a ways to go myself. Good luck, and if I can help with anything just send me a private message.
