After a good amount of info from all sorts of people in response to this thread, I went back and skimmed what I could wrap my head around. Here's what I've come up with (slowly adding links to pics as I have time):
Items in green are the most-recently added. Items in red have been recently updated/changed due to new information. Cowl-to-Fender Seam: absent (metal-filled) or empty for very early 70 (up to #49), rubber seam thereafter. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Ignition Switch: on dash, left of column for 70 & 71, on right side of column for 72 Interior Mirror: small version for 70 and 71, larger for 72 Dash Top: wide opening for glovebox for 70 & 71, narrower for 72 (to accommodate dash vents) Dash Vents: Absent for 70 & 71, present for 72 Door Panels: smooth vinyl for 70 & 71, basketweave for 72 Glove Box: wide for 70 & 71, narrow for 72 (to accommodate dash vents) Main Wiring Harness: hybrid /4-/6 harness for 72 cars Passenger Foot Rest ("dogbone"): present in 70 & 71, replaced with foam pad on bulkhead for 72 cars Passenger Seat: fixed for 70 & 71, moveable for 72 Rear Bumper: squared off for 70 and early 71, rounded for later 71 and 72 Seat Inserts: smooth vinyl for 71, basketweave for 70 & 72 Seatbelts: non-retractable for all years Steering Column: /4 steering column for 72 cars If you know of further differences, please post to this thread and I'll include them in this list. Please include a picture if you can and I'll link to it from here. And thanks to everyone who's contributed!
