This is '69 Barracuda notchback. Barracuda fastbacks should be different. I see the distance from the hinge pin to the rear face of the bracket is not the same in both photos.

Yes, 2 door hardtops are the same for each year, 67-76. Barracuda's are different. I am not 100% sure that the the welded-on brackets are all the same, would have to get out the parts book for each year and check part numbers.  The problem is that I have never actually changed any over the years, they don't rust and if they are damaged in a collision the car is usually totaled at that point and is the last thing that would be replaced anyway. I see no reason why there would be a change, the inner wheel housings are pretty much identical through the years.

The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
