| It says "70" but thats not a "70" front end...71 or 72. Very pretty color. I would want to add buckets and floor console,but to each his own...I will watch for your "Go Fund Me." | |

| Parking lights indicate a 1971 front end on a 1970 car. I'd love a 1970-1972 Concours wagon done up like an SS. Way cool! | |

| Yes, 71 parking lights.....I put together a 72 for my wife when my kids were small...... Little known fact about 70-72 wagons..... Front fenders from a 70-72 wagon and El Camino are unique... Coupe and sedan fenders were widened for 70-72 and the widening extended onto the door sheetmetal... You CAN, however, put 70-72 El or wagon sheetmetal onto 68 and 69 wagons or El Caminos as an update....

| Also, 1970 Chevelle front parking lights are amber rectangle, El Camino has round amber ones, and I believe the coupe SS versions are clear-ish.

| The 71's have that vertical bar across the parking lights making then look 4-piece......I wasn't aware of differences in lens color for El Caminos, but the corner parking lights are probably different than the Cpe and sedan because it's on the corner of a narrower fender.... While they widened the cars for 1970, they kept the exact same body from 68-69 for the wagons and El Caminos through 1972...... Then things turned UGLY! | |

Yes, 1970 is to Chevelles what 1969 is to Camaros! (Iconic)..... 1970 wagon/camino front clip is highly prized! | |
