All 3 67-8 black cars in a row looked great at the show. I was studying both 68s and each had different side scoops than the other.

Is it because KR scoops are unique ? Or does it depend on build dates ? Looks like the Gt350 is a early built .

No. GT500 KRs use the same scoops

I dont think build dates have anything to do with the scoops.

My best guess is they had more than one mold for the scoops and they differed slightly.

The 67 side scoops are different than the 68's.

On the 68s the areas where the exposed screws are are different in 2 styles of the scoops. The top scoops my car has both styles of upper scoops on it from the factory(original paint car). I believe the KR and GT350  each had a different style IIRC. The GT350 is an early dual serial number car(000006).I'll leave it at this and if anyone wants to delve into it more we can start a new topic on the 68 page.
