VG30 got two vertical thicker bars and lost tiny retroreflective lights on bumper's edges, now incorporated in light clusters. And the rear bumper lost 'dents' for exhaust pipes. -- Last edit: 2016-11-20 11:46:42
Exiv96 ◊ 2018-05-12 01:28	Small correction : the April 1973 update on the Century gave it the chassis code VG21. The VG30 code appeared in January 1977, and only concerned engine modifications in compliance to the newest exhaust emissions. Externally, the car remained unchanged. Same cause, same effects for the following chassis code change, VG35, in November 1978.
