Hello all, the question I have is can you swap out a 76 front end ie grill and headlight bezels (pic 1) onto a 77 front end (pic 2)?
I believe so, the fenders are essentially the same while the difference is primarily in the '77 urethane headlamp and park lamp surrounds. Of course, I do not know if the wiring harness will allow for it, but I can't see why not.

Yes, Chris is correct and the wiring is the same. You may want to keep the 77 bumper because it is much lighter than the steel bumper & rebar on the earler models.
That's possible. My friend did the reverse. He put the 77 front end with the lighter bumpers on his 75.
And I went from a 78 to a 73. :)
Forgot to say, you will have to modify the lower radiator support.
