Welcome to the site. I have owned a 67 and a 68 and if memmory serves me the fenders,hood and trunk lid and bumpers will iinterchange between 67 and 68. Check out Year One for firebird parts. They show a repo hood tach.

Weyepopping.gifW...nice car!
Welcome aboard!.

Fenders swap but are different..
Like most manufacturers, side marker lamps were included on '68 cars!.

Look on the front of the motor to the pass side of the waterpump for the engine code..
Not sure but I think '68 may've been the first year for sequential Vin stampings?.

Have you sent your car's Vin to PHS or Canada Vintage services yet?.
Both provide great info of equipment shipped w/ your car when new and more!

Welcome to the site....I believe 1969 was a year in itself, so I think you are looking 67-68 only. As for parts here is a link to a parts supplier, I am sure they will have what you need..  http://performanceyears.com/Catalogs.asp

Depends what you need.

Where are you located? I'm in Waterloo if you want to drop by and have a look at what I've got.

gasoline alley will have what you need. 67-69 basically same car underneith, 67/8 fenders should go, 69 you would need the front clip. Motors are the same, mounts changed in 70.
