I have these two tins for the rear, why are they different? (holes and notch)
Are the differences year related or something else?  |

Looking into this more:
PET says there are three rear tin types. I have designated them as Types A, B and C. But these three types do not account for the 1975-76 cars with the EGR tube from the exhaust that penetrated the rear tin on the pass side. Does anyone have a photo of a 1975-76 (1.8 or 2.0) rear tin with the pass side EGR hole in it to post? Attached image(s)

I must have 15-20 tins and can check if there are more varients. Anyone need one please contact me. |
