  1. from what i can tell the main differenced between the 70 and 71 is the grille and leading edge of the hood tail light pnel and both bumpers but the rest of the body and interior is the same i figured i would used a amt 69 galaxie hood and grille and rework it and same with the back tail light panel i want to make burt reynolds characters car from the movie white lightning i know thee were inconsistancies with the car in the film like at times is was a custom 500 and at points it was a ltd and then some interior shots were filmed in a 71 mustang mainly when he was shown shifting to another gear same with the underhood shots of the engine was a mustang due to the shock towers
