Just remember that with a 1968 hood you have to use 1968 hinges. The reproduction 68-69 hoods use 1969 hinges but otherwise fit a '68 just as well.
1970 was the first year that the El Camino used different fenders than the Chevelle & Malibu. The reason is that the 68-72 El Caminos all use the same doors & quarter panels, and the 70-72 Chevelle has a bodyline that runs from the fender, through the door and into the quarter panel. The 70-72 El Camino fenders don't have the bodyline so that they will match up to the 68-72 doors & quarters. Likewise, the Chevelle fender extensions have an indentation in the side that the E.C. extensions don't have.
