As Keith and Jim mentioned, good late rear fenders are pretty common.

Plus, the last time I checked Innovations in Fiberglass only offered 
Type 3 Notchback fenders without the vent gills.  The Notch rear 
fenders are NOT interchangeable with Squarebacks or Fastbacks.  Fasty 
and Square fenders are interchangeable.

'70 Fasty (Jane 2 - Type 3 Lead Sled wannabe)
'71 Fasty (Jane -parts car due to rust)
various parts.....don't we all.
