The 67 tilt can does indeed mount under the battery tray on a bracket, while the 68 mounts through the fender apron as pictured. Marty

I got lucky on Craig's list this weekend too found a set of 68 disc brake spindles, dust shields, tie rods and calipers that turned out to be remanufactured all for $25. Some times it is good just to be lucky. It helps to make up for those other times. Marty

Pre strike 68's had front and rear ( painted) bumper guards. Post strike they became part of a option package that included wheel opening moldings. That is why most GTCS and HCS do not have them. You do need to drill holes in the rear valance to add the rear bumperetts. Marty
