Dimensions the same but the earlier roof might be ribbed so you may have headliner issues. Doors might be lift up handle and rotten but will fit.
B pillars also rot near the bottom.
Put some pics up of the truck.

Yes unfortunately.
You can weld the new B posts if they are any good to your existing sills.
Any pics of the potential donar vehicle?

Also you need to check that the chassis is still 'true', otherwise not much will fit ...

Wow ouch. Look fixable though.
Is it a genuine camel trophy?

Bulkhead looks like it might need some work on the near side, and hopefully it’s not got a twist

Might be worth looking up the dimensions and knocking up a jig of sorts, even out of timber ...

@xprowelde , sorry to see the tumble damage and trust you/no one hurt in tumbling event...but hey, it's a Land Rover so all is fixable. Re;' chassis measurement, I can really recommend buying/hiring/borrowing a laser line device and carefully triangulate the dimensions to give 3D measurements...then you know the chassis is correct. Post which, it's just Landy tin bashing; good luck with rebuild

Look out for the reindeer on those roads up there.
