Looking at the listings they can't fit the models they are claiming. Scamp and Dart body styles are different then Duster ,Demon, Dart sport. The curve is different at the quarter and will put a slight buckle in the quarter if interchanged. That is why the two body styles have a different amount of attachment holes 3 verses 4 holes. Also 72 and newer, All tubes fasten to the quarter, Earlier style the quarter fastens to the tube.
Your tube for a 72 scamp should have 4 mounting holes and the tube should slide through the quarter and the screws go through the tube and screw into the quarter.
I have tubes for 72 Scamp/Dart

Shiny paint causes stress.
Do you have a gas cap for it? They're different for 70-71 than later models too. 67-71 may be the same. DAMHIK.

I do have a gas cap yes. But it’s kind of rough and will probably need to be replaced

Pay attention if you buy one. The later model caps have longer prongs on them and won't tighten up. I bought mine at 521 Restorations but I needed a vented cap which was harder to find. It was expensive, but when you need it, you pay it.
I should have any year or style you would need. I sold a bunch at Carlisle but I should have more in the shed. The only style I don't have is lay down rear seat .

You’d have one for a 1971 Scamp? Would you have a vented cap to go with it by chance? My filler neck currently is very corroded, it sat in foul gas for quite some time

Does your tank only vent through the cap?

Yes, the venting system that mounts in the trunk was long gone so I bought an early model tank with just one vent nipple, capped it off, and use a vented cap. No problems.

Excellent. I’ll probably go that route
