The grill has five horizontal bars. 70 had four and 71 had six. 70 - /vehicle_262126-Lincoln-Continental-1970.html 71 - /vehicle_18638-Lincoln-Continental-1971.html 72 - /vehicle_348969-Lincoln-Continental-53A-1972.html I also noticed the light just glinting of the fender edge trim below the side windows (post 71). It could be argued that it's shine off the paint given the poor quality picture but the grill is for certain. There is also a hint of polished trim on the rocker panel (again post 71). -- Last edit: 2012-08-07 03:05:49
