I found some poly ones on Summit but they are only listed for 79-80 model years.
Or did they screw up and are these for Fox bodied cars only, seeing as the rest of the listings are for those?
thanks,

To answer my own question, apparently they are different for different years. I just found some that are listed for only 74-76.

74 to mid 76 take one size. Mid 76 & up take the later. I think they interchange with Fox Mustang also.
