The blister on the fender and the quarter end right before the door. The guys at Ford were smart. I'm sure they didn't want to make any more parts than they needed to.
To be honest I always thought that they were special until I had to replace the passenger door. My dad went down to the wrecker and they gave him a Mustang door. I was away and came back to find it on the car and looking just fine. I asked where he got the Capri door and he said it was from a Mustang. So I spent 15 minutes looking at both sides but couldn't find any difference. The driver's door was from a Capri for sure because it had the correct door tag.
