71/72 hood and 72 core support...

Joe,
Not to say you're wrong, but that's a '71 core support, '72's had the little raised bubble near the hi beam lights.
Looks like fenders & core support have been replaced.
I see vinyl top rivets on the quarters, so probably not a Rallye 350. Looks to be Sebring yellow, which could be special ordered on any Cutlass that year I think?
Looks like yellow paint in the hood where the vents went also...
I'd like to see the cowl tag or vin tag, also a couple under hood shots.

But you did...

I'll defer on this, but I thought the 72s had the squared-off corner on the outboard end of the raised area above the grilles to clear the die cast Supreme grilles that year. In any case, neither the hood nor core support are from a 70, so it would probably be helpful to have the VIN on this car.

Ditto on the core support. But Joe is right about the 71/72 hood. Don't know how you can tell if the fenders have been replaced from any of those pics.
X2 on the VIN or Cowl tag. I wouldn't put ANY stock in the color of the body. A car this old and in this condition has seen better days and likely several repaints. Def not a Rallye350

BTW, some sellers really don't have a clue about the cars they sell. This could easily be a 71 and have all the proper parts.

Did you notice that it appears to have the somewhat elusive B85 molding (for fastbacks) on the rear quarter?

the molding on top of the 1/4 next to the 1/4 glass? tell me more about it...didnt see it on the posting but once you posted, i see it..

Wow, you guys are Cutlass forensic scientists! I couldn't describe my existing core support at all except it's black with metal like properties.
