early vs late front fenders

[desertt5]

Are early and late fenders interchangable? I know the header panels are put on different, but fenders?

TIA

from what I understand, there's a difference in turbo/na fenders where the lines curve over from the top/side of the fender, to the headlight covers/header panel and where the front spoiler lines up at the edge of the fender.. Not sure about early/late fenders for an NA.

Here's some more info; this post says late NA/S drivers fender does not have antenna hole. This is due to the radio antenna being laminated into the front windshield vs early NA's having an antenna hole in the fender for power/non power antenna mast.

fender dilemma...

I think that sums up the differences..

that's the only difference! 83, 84, and early 85 have a hole for the antenna in the drivers side fender. other than that, fully interchangeable.

ERAU944, does the erau stand for the university?

I think it's Embry-Riddle Aeronautical U.

They were the biggest rivals of my undergrad. aeronautics program - I was down in KMLB.

Kinda figured it was. I am about to gradute from there. ( only took me 20 years to finish)

i took my sweet time at 5 years, though i'll be paying for the next 20. it'd be twice that if i'd elected to fly there as well.

Marine Corps had paid for mine luckily.
