Not many bits from 60s will fit 70s models, BTW

Looks like you might need to check the chassis number as it might be a private import, looks like later guards with upright headlights???

The fire will expose what is really underneath and pretty hard to warp the rear panels if they have not been warped in a prior rear ender.

Cheers,
