The front bumper on my '70 EC has rectangular lenses and almost all photos show cicular on the El Camino's and rectangular on Chevelle's. Is mine a replacement from a Chevelle?

70 El Camino's and Monte Carlo's had round parking lights in the front bumper and Chevelle's had rectangular parking lights. So that'a a Chevelle bumper you've got on there. The base model Chevelle/El Camino/Monte Carlo's had Amber colored lenses and the SS models had White colored lenses. I have a 70 El Camino SS396 and switched from and El Camino bumper to a Chevelle bumper cause I like the look of it better. Hope this helps. smile.gif
