1971 or 1972 taillights question

Post by ralley72 » Sun Apr 28, 2019 6:56 am

Is there a difference between 1971 and 1972 taillight housings and lenses? Found a taillight lens and housing in a Chevelle junk yards and not sure which year it is.

Most definitely - 71 and 72 tail lights and housings are way different.
