Provided it's not fitted with the '65-'66 disc brakes and still has the factory drum setup, you'll have more to select from. If you have an aftermarket disc brake conversion, you're going to have to do some homework on your end to determine offset, clearances, backspacing, etc.

You'll have a lot of non-topic posts to look through that go all the way back to 2006 or so, but that's part of the education (and fun) about this.
