Looks like '73 or earlier to me. As far as I know the only unique long-hood front fenders were for the RS, ST, and some of the other unobtainium racing specials.

From the photo it looks like a SWB front fender, minimal/no flair, so yes.

That's a swb fender, correct up to '68. Most likely a pre '68 since I don't see any fender marker holes but they could have been filled in. Incorrect for '69-73 due to lack of flare. I've bought two of these in the past few months and paid $400, and $450 for each in similar condition.

That's a '68. One year only. Early turn signal housing. Sugar scoop headlight mounts. Tapered inner lip.

Just one other point I noticed to confirm what the others said -- that wouldn't work on my '69 because the area for the directional is closed in the back. In my 69 that area is open.

More importantly, the opening for the turn signal housing is narrower on a pre-69 fender and, consequently, the opening for the horn grille is wider. Replacing one fender on a 69-73 car with one from a 68 would look odd even if you put in the correct signal housing and horn grille.
