Need advice (or opinions) on Buying a Scamp

Quality? Nothing got better in Detroit the deeper into the seventies you go. IMO. Body panel fitment and number of spot welds is one example. Between the two I would buy the 72. And that's coming from a guy with a 74. But mine has a 72 tail panel and a 73 front bumper. Large bolt pattern and disc brakes would be a plus for the 74.
