I know that 67 doesn't have marker lights and 68 does, but how do you tell a 69 from a 70 and 71 from 72?

'71 and '72 are very similar. The rear view mirror on the '71 mounts on the roof above the window, the '72 rear view mirror mounts on the window. On the '72 there is a screw in door just below the wing window to hold stuff together.

I am sure others will chime in with more. I use to have a link to a web-site that explains the differences, but unfortunately it went away when the old hard drive smoked itself.
