On my way to work the other day I unfortunately hit some black ice and lost traction in all four wheels. The car ended up hitting the guard rail and ruined the right front fender and grille. I am having a hard time finding metal fenders for a 1967 Barracuda and I was wondering if anything was interchangeable from another Mopar. I would like to keep the double grille of the 1967, which is why I don't really want to put on a dart front end. If it's not possible would anyone know of a place that has fenders for the Barracuda? I have seen fenders for sale on here, but I am not sure if they would fit the vehicle. I have found very little information on this subject. Thank you for the help.

And of course, some photos. Not really sure why the first photo is in twice. I tried to delete the code for it, but it always seems to show up.

67-69 have the same fender however the marker lights are different. 67: No marker light, 68: Round, 69: flush mount style.
 
emblem location differences and headlight area differences
basically they are the same
nothing that cant be adjusted
i have a good 69 fender

An accident is never good, especially in an older car where parts can be hard to find. You should be able to find
your parts here, though. As a bit of luck, it looks like the hood escaped damage.
 
Carefully salvage all the trim retainers you can, not sure for the barracuda but for my 67 Dart many are not reproduced. Also the retainers behind the grill etc. Basically don't through anything away!
 
Try Wildcat Mopars out of Eugine Oregon. I have had good luck getting things for our duster there..
Their phone number is 503-668-7768

Get an eye bolt, a come-along and a big tree. Pull that dent out and save that fender!

That might be a plan if the cowl area is impacted and the door droops. With it being that wadded up, it would
need a frame rack. That is way beyond a tree and a come along. Trying to repair that fender would be a lesson
in frustration. That fender is scrap, replace it.
 
Thank you for the responses. I have extremely little experience with body work. Fixing it is beyond me. I've asked a few body shops recently if they could fix it and after seeing the photos they said no.

I'll have to monitor the for sale section and check out Wildcat Mopars. Thanks for the phone number.
 
That is a good point, but I will be unable to reliably check it for at least a month or so.
