ALL hoods from '68 to '77 will bolt up the same. Of course, the '68-'72 hoods are shorter, due to the windshield wiper door, but the wiper door can be removed, and the later hoods installed. The latches did change a couple of times over the years, but the physical hood itself will interchange. Thumbs Up
