I don't know but a couple of the guys were picking it apart already. Something about a wrong part number on the grille.:D

Ya know I am not really sure. It was an image our webmaster used.

It was mentioned in another thread that it appeared to be either a 72 with 71 parking lamps or 71 with 72 grill.

I hadn't noticed the differences in the grills. Looks awesome though that color is gorgeous

Yeah, that thing is pretty nice. I don't know what the difference in the two grills is about though.

71 grille is silver with chrome trim, 72 is blacked out. Basically, in a nutshell.

Did they still make them in '72? I thought they quit after '69. ;)

72's are cool, add 2 more headlights and they'd be down right awesome.

Absolutely, That's what I've always been told. Real Chevelles have 4 headlights.
and I always thought all Chevelles wanted to be Red also.

And only one year,right?:)

No they do actually come in more years than one! It's just some years are better than others. I'm trying not to be biased here.

having owned a 64, 65, 67 and 69 I have to say the only years that really count are 64 and 65, the rest were posing as Chevelles.:pWaving

I started a thread on it in General Talk Friday night..Didn't mean to sound like I was picking it apart. I just noticed it had a 72 grille and 71 park lights and headlight buckets, that's why I said 71 with a 72 grille.:)

Jeff has a pretty good supply. He just didn't have the date code I needed.

I was going to buy a 70 but I couldn't figure out how to make it look like a 65:)

You can't spit without hitting a '70 Chevelle! Didn't they make like a 100,000 of them? LOL
