67-72 doors sheet metal fit wise are indentical.
there are difference's with vent windows locks, window cranks and door panels plus the 72's have an addition screw.
They bolt up fine 67-72 doors are basically interchangeable

From the outside you can't tell the difference.

I'VE EVEN WENT AS FAR AS WELDING UP THE SCEW HOLE UNDER THE VENT WINDOW, PUTTING IN A EARLIER DOOR PANEL & WINDOW REGULATOR . THEN THEY ARE REALLY REALLY HARD TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE. JOHN
