Hi I am new here on the nest and this is my first post. I was wanting to know if any one has tried or knows of any one trying to put a front grill assembly or front clip from a 72 satellite or RR on a 74 satellite. I have a 74 satellite but like the look of the 72 way better thanks in advance for any info.

I'm not sure it would even bolt on, but even if it would the body lines wouldn't match with the doors.

Thank you for posting an answer to my question so quickly. I didn't think about the body lines matching up lol I was hoping it would work I like the 71-72 look better but don't want my car to look like a frankiencar to get that look.

a fellow up in Iowa had a 74 with a 71 front clip almost bolted on, it did not look good in person. Wish I would have taken a picture or 2. It had a 71 or 2 drivers door, but the passenger side door was a 74. body lines don't match to the quarter. I tried to purchase just to get the 71 part.
