"Lil Old Lady" '71 Nova

[Pantera]

turn around what you said about somebody changing the '71 lenses onto thier '70 Nova to make it look like a newer car. We often changed newer ones to make a car look newer than it was back in '71. Especially '70 Vettes.

somebody may have swaped them on her with out her realizing it.

Pantera, swapping to the clear lenses would make the car look older - not newer, since they are '70's and the car is a '71

The thingy in the trunk was part of the EEC equipment which was new for '71, also included the charcoal cannister under the hood and a non-vented gas tank. The jack indeed got relocated to the tailight panel, with a special bracket welded to the trunk floor to accomodate it.

Neat car, love to have one

EEC is really RPO NA9.
Also known as California Emissions,before 1971.

Think the other way. The guy with the 70 wound up with a 71 or newer looking car while the little ole lady wouldn't have noticed anything different and her car looked older.
