70 convertible!

Nice Tony..... it is a little confused though.  It looks like 71/72 headlight bezels and 72 hood spear.  You are right, the guy does good work, I really like it.

That’s just how Ertl made these cars. They only wanted to do one mold for the main body so they had to pick one or the other headlight styles. They likely picked the square headlights since it was on 2 of the three years. Dave Mau actually consulted with Ertl when they were making prototypes. They took some of his suggestions but not all.

This Backyard Conversions simply takes one of the Ertl cars and customizes it as a convertible. Probably uses Ertl Chevelle parts... just like real life.

Did you get one of these also?   I like the fact that there is only 12 made.   I have some rare diecast but this is definitely the rarest
