I will be going to a swap meet in a few weeks. I hope to pick up a 1970 left front fender. I know they are different from the Chevelle, but how do I identify an Elco fender?

Hi Dutch1970,

The '70 Chevelle has a slight body line running along the side. It starts at the front light bezel and runs towards the side view mirror. Elko's don't have this and are smooth. Also, the Chevelle front light bezel has this body line to match. So, a front light bezel from a '70 Chevelle will not work either for an Elko.
Take a look at the April "Feature Car" and you'll see what I mean. Hope this helps...
