Default 69 wiper grill
Would a 69 wiper grill look and fit the same on a 71?

I'm looking for a wiper grill for my 71 and a gentleman in the for sale section has one for a 69.

Thanks.

I bought a 71 for my 69, never used it (went with a long hood) but I know it would have fit.

i'd guessed the 68's grilles were the same also. Actually, the 68 wiper doors are slightly different than the 69 and ups...but the 68 doors will fit nevertheless.

68 is the same grille with the exception of washer squirter nozzle attachment.
