Jim,
Since air doors weren't stock, (they were developed by Terry) it really
doesn't make any difference what you VIN is. To hold the air for the
air doors, there is a heavy steel rectangular box that gets welded to
the 2 bumper mounting plates on the rear bumper.
As to later VINs there was a mod to the later 75's that replaced the
coffee can as the vaccumn accumulator for the headlight vaccum. They
drilled a hole in the front bumper and used the metal inner structure
of the bumper as the accumulator.
