I am trying to replace the fuel tank on my father-in-law's 75 cordoba. Looking at the 521 parts site, where I am ordering other parts, I dont see straps for 75 charger/cordoba, but there are 71-3 charger. Will those straps work? The tank we ordered is a Spectra Premium CR21A.
 
Update: These straps are not close. We had to completely reshape them to fit the 74-up tank and then the j bolts were too short. The sending unit also needed some tweaking to fit the tank correctly.
 
Were you are to locate j-bolts to adapt to Spectra Premium CR21A fuel tank. I'm planning to install one in my 75 Cordoba. The original tank is wider to accommodate more fuel, but limits the exhaust to single on the right side.
 
No. The bolts I got were for a 71-73 and were too short. My father-in-law bought some threaded rod and a pair of turn buckles to extend the bolts then tacked welded them so they could not separate. A more elegant solution would be to turn down a longer hex bolt and then bend the end. There may be a longer j bolt off the shelf also.
