Technical 1962 Fenders on a 1963 Impala

Discussion in 'Traditional Customs' started by spillaneswillys, Nov 22, 2017.

  1. I recently came across a nice 1963 Chevrolet without a front clip. I was wondering if anyone would know if a 62 front clip would fit the 1963?
    Thanks for the input! And Happy Thanksgiving!

    The '62 clip will not fit on the '63.

    61-62 are have similar reveals on the side, and 63-64 are related as well. 63-62, not so much.
