61-2 Valiant vs. 61-2 Lancer

I believe that the front sheet metal from the '60-'61 Valiant will bolt onto a '62 Valiant, but I do mean all the front sheet metal, including the fenders. You can't just swap over the grille support sheet metal by itself. The '62 Valiant radiator and grille support sheet metal was a one-year-only design, but the front fenders and hoods otherwise stayed pretty much the same.

And yes, the complete '61-'62 Lancer front sheet metal should bolt onto a '60-'62 Valiant. The Lancer hood may or may not work on Valiant sheet metal; I'm not sure.

I'd suggest that you ask them to make sure.
