    No...all 64-72 A body trunk torsion bars are NOT the same! There are MANY different bars + I do mean MANY! Convertibles are different than hardtops because the trunk lid was smaller. If your car was a GTO Judge, GSX, or 442 with a spoiler, the bars were heavier because of the weight of the spoiler. They are not the same left to right usually, either. Some bars will exchange across makes, but that's not typical. Like a 1969 Chevelle SS 'vert uses the same bars as a 1970 GS 'vert. You need to get the exact right bars if possible, ESPECIALLY if they are being shipped to Sweden. The wrong bars MAY work, but the trunk might not stay open, or might be too hard to close. If you say exactly what you are looking for, someone here might be able to cross reference them for you.
