Many times the average ad lister on Craigs, Fakebook, & even automotive enthusiast bulletin boards has no clue exactly what he/she has. Having driven several hours to look @ parts that were misidentified or misrepresented, it's part of life. Have had several instances recently, of second Gen Camaro doors, being mistaken as both early & late style 2nd Gen Bird doors. It happens.
On second Gen Bird & T/A fenders, the original applications are:
'70-72
'73
'74-75 (some very early '74 models received '73 fenders, I've personally inspected & pulled them)
'76
'77-78
"79-81"..... sometime, during the '78 model , the dual spoiler mtg style began, these were eventually phased out, & the "79-81" spoiler mtg style began to be used.
In the mid '80's, when one went to the dealer & for a 2nd Gen T/A ordered the 1000xxxx part number replacements, one received the dual spoiler mtg style fenders. Have had several nos pairs of that style replacement. Personally, for my own T/A projects, do not like that style. For #1 condition correct early fenders, will continue to change out complete rails & front stamped structure.
