Re: My $1k 69 Highboy
Title is a 69, but judging from the identifiation chart I have a 70 front end? Due to the split grill?

Re: My $1k 69 Highboy
Well...could also be a '71 or a '72 grill shell. Count the tabs that hold the plastic grill inserts, my '70 has 4 for certain and IIRC, '71's and 72's have 6. As usual, I could be wrong on the number of tabs on '71's and 72's but they are different than a '70, a one year only grill shell.
