    '55 to '71 on tubs and fenders.
    '55 to '75 on tubs (with some body mount fab work).

    '55 to '75 tubs should just be interchangeable I thought? I wasn't aware of any changes with the body mounts.

    I believe that '72 - '75 won't have the cutout for the underseat tank filler. I suppose you could cut it yourself.

    The 70-75 will also have a slight variant in the rear body mounts due to the rear tank. This is nothing major though and would not really affect its use.
