When I was in high school in the '50's, I crunched the front end of my '36 tudor. The local junkyard didn't have any '36 parts at the time, but did have a complete '35 front end. I was able to get it on and the car driving with no trouble when I was 17, so you should be able to do it. I had to use the complete front sheet metal (fenders, grille and hood) to make it work. I don't remember any problems (running boards and hood latches not matching, etc.), but it was a looooong time ago.
