The under hood pic is revealing. 26" radiator with the small radiator cover and shroud and small opening in the radiator support. Pass fender is later 74-? which is pretty common for later NOS items. Can't be sure about the drivers' side, but I'd be willing to bet it's not original either without the W/W bottle mount. Normally, I'd guess fenders and rad support were replaced due to rust, but with the small 21" radiator cover and shroud, it could have been due to a front end collision. Again, not knowing the history, it's only speculation.

Hmmm...I'm rethinking the probability of front end damage. Driver's inner fender looks correct for the '70, but you'd really need to check the inner fender front extension. If it has a round indent depression approx. 5" or so diameter, but no hole in the middle, it's a 70 and would be correct for the June build date. If it has a hole in the center of the depression, it's likely 71-73

Man you guys are good! So if I buy it, just paint an spruce it up then drive the wheel's off it, and enjoy it. Do not try to make it correct because it's just not that kind of car. The thing drives excellent, tight crisp not a hot rod but respectable.
