By rebuild, do you mean replate/refinish; or are yours cracked/worn out at the pivots/latches? Replating them correctly is expensive and you have to disassemble and reassemble them yourself.

70 is different than 71-74...so rebuilding is the best option

you know how on a 71-4 you can lock the door with the knob and then close the door and it's locked..like all the modern cars now...on the 70..when you push down on the knob,close the door and the knob lifts back up..you can only lock the door with the key....70 only....my left latch has a worn out groove where it contacts the striker and the door rattles there...I might weld it up and grind that part down for a tight fit when it wraps the striker..other than that, I have not taken it out to see what the physical difference is between the two..swap meets have them all bunched in a box and you need to know what you are looking at...but mine is a minor fix...
