somename ◊ 2014-10-25 02:06	^Are you sure; shouldn't there be some vertical elements visible?

somename ◊ 2014-10-25 02:23	Exactly with the 72 grill the horizontal and vertical elements are in the same plane; whereas on the 71 the vertical line are set back giving a more horizontal look. My point is with the 72 egg crate grill the vertical and horizontal lines should be viable.
Commander 57 ◊ 2014-10-25 04:45	You could be right but note how few horizontal bars there appear to be. The '71 had 11 of them while the subject car appears to have far fewer. Of course, the photo is not particularly clear.
