Engine mount points should be the same, as those are on the frame
and not the body.

Some bodies - earlier, as I recall - have a brace in the transmission
tunnel. Later cars have an indentation in the left inner fender panel
that allows the solex air cleaner to clear it. And earlier bodies have
the hood prop bar on the wrong size :-)
