OPH, Bruce, Baron, Jonny, Nacho thanks for sharing that info.
At the swap meet I was holding the fender, inspecting, taking photos, and trying to keep my sunglasses from falling off. Multitasking was wasted because I missed the critical fender details and dropped my sunglasses.
Somehow I figured the 73+ raised section with 2 holes for brace wasn't there. My pic seems to show one of the two holes (hand covering area.. doh!)
I didnt take a photo of the front valance attaching bracket, but I don't recall seeing the bracket.
Oddly, I walked around and all day and this guy had the only Firebird fenders I saw. Driver's was $150 and pass was $50. I saw minor rust, no rust perforation, and no plastic filler. That seemed to be a good price considering the condition. Wanted to grab them due to low cost, even if not correct for my year, as spares.
In the end I couldn't recall the seller's location and left without them.
Nacho to me that green fender looks really nice.
