Commander 57 ◊ 2011-08-05 17:45	But what can be seen of the grille makes me want to say 1972. In fact this looks like a '71 with a '72 grille. -- Last edit: 2011-08-05 17:49:34
rjluna2 ◊ 2011-08-05 17:58	After all, it is about 40 years old. Take your pick
Commander 57 ◊ 2011-08-05 18:01	I guess the grille or bumper could be changed out about equally easily. Are there any more features visible that could narrow down '71 vs '72?

Commander 57 ◊ 2011-08-05 23:18	OK.
