The wiper arms are way different between early and late cars. The late car 
wipers moved in unison [ / / ] and the early cars moved from the outside 
in - [  /  \ ]

The 67.5s used a different mounting for the wiper blades that was commonly 
used on all Datsuns in the 70s. The 65-67s and the 1500s used what is called 
a 'spoon' mount and it's hard to find wipers for them now. The spoon mounts 
were popular in the 50s and earlier.
