Re: fender difference?
According to lmc there isn't. If you are talking factory equipment I believe the early 73,4,5 fenders were made out of slightly heavier metal even though I haven't read it anywhere. Maybe they just feel heavier to me.

Re: fender difference?
yes the hood got that little ridge on the front in 78 and kept it till they changed fenders.

Re: fender difference?
They will both fit with no modifications needed, however, the older fenders had more mounting holes on them where they bolt to the core support. I have a late 70's right fender on my 73, and it had 2 less mounting oles IIRC.
