It would probably be easier fitting early rear guards to a late model. Front guard length is longer on the 70's models.
Nothing simple like bolt on conversion, all cutting and welding to make it fit.
Good luck and post some pics.
If you can't fix it with a hammer,
you have an electrical problem....

yup! early should stay early and late should stay late.
mixing era makes them look like a child from a grandpa and teen couple.
"shivers" very wrong.

The fronts are really completely different cars, not just the panels but the front section and more.
Would defintley be easier to put early rear panels on a late car. But why? A world first for sure!
I'll take your early front fenders if they're up for sale

People just usually want to make them look earlier rather than later that's all, not the other way around.
