'71 Fisher body manual

Will the info in the '71 body manual apply to a '72? (A-body) I really would like to have one. Have not seen any for '72 on Ebay. Just '71. Or does anyone have info on another source? Thanks, Chumley

I'm curious also, since the 72s were just held-over 71 designs due to a UAW strike. I think it would be close or the same. I have a 72 442 vert, so maybe someone has the right answer.

Yes, the 71/72 manuals are close enough that the 71 manual will be adequate for virtually anything you need to do.
