Similar like with Cedrics - used in the chase and many times during the whole film:![[Image: crown74pol2.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/crown74pol2.jpg) ![[Image: crown74pol3.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/crown74pol3.jpg) ![[Image: crown7442.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/crown7442.jpg) ![[Image: crown74pol.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/1306/crown74pol.jpg) -- Last edit: 2012-03-12 18:05:01 |

Are you sure they are 74's? That square look and double headlamps within boxes are more likely that of an S80 |

We mean the same car I bet, but wasn't it - the S80, made since 1974? |

No, the S70 was made from 1971-74, with a facelift and cosmetic changes in 1973. The more boxy S80 debuted in 1975, probably late 1974 as a 75 model, and ran until 1979. |

The I guess, that this one: /vehicle_484623-Toyota-Crown-1975.html with the bigger grill will be also one year younger - intro. in 1975 for 1976? |

Well, the thing about Japanese cars, especially Fleet models, is that each generation has its own trim level system. Like, on the crown taxi in the link you provided, is the mid-level trim, because of the chrome trim around the headlamps and in the grille, but still retains the Quad headlights of the lower end models. The low-trim cars, like this one, have no chrome, or almost none, quad headlamps, and an inset grille. It can be very frustrating, I know, to determine which one is which, ESPECIALLY since each trim retains the model name of the car, unlike the Chevrolet Biscayne/Bel Air, which branched off into their own model names. BUT, the car in the main pic is a 1975+. The Crown in the second thumbnail is more rounded, and that one IS an S70. |

Yes, I can distinguish them (the S70 and S80), it is rather easy  - it was only the matter of the exact year. Well if the grill depends only on the trim level, then fine. |
