a few things to think about. the bumper brackets for a 68 and 74 are totally different. the 74 has shock absorbing bumper mounts so the holes in the fenders for the bumpers are much larger on the 74 than the 68. heres pics
here is a 1974 and up - notice the large slots in the bottom of the rear fenders for the bumoer mounts.... http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_p鈥?/a>
and this is the fenders for a 1968 to 1973 - notice the slots for the bumpers here, yes its front fenders but the slots are the same front and back.... http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_p鈥?/a>
another thing to think about. the 1974 could be a SUPER BEETLE. if its a super you CAN NOT interchange the front fenders at all. the rear fenders are the same as a standard but the front is completely different.
which direction are you going? 74 fenders on a 68? or 68 fenders on a 74?
you can however buy bumper bracket adapters since if you do the swap you will not be able to use the bumper brackets that were on the car
THEN YOU WONT HAVE A PROBLEM. EVERYTHING WILL JUST BOLT RIGHT UP
