This car has 350, automatic, bucket seats, console, floor shift, power windows, 8 track tape, Sport steering wheel , am/fm.

All 70 Convertibles are Supremes (notchback body). The S models are the fastback body. See example in my sig.

Thanks guys, I had considered maybe the fenders came off a "S", but really don't know enough detail about these cars to make a decision. Would the vin number shed any light on this? I understand I can research it on the net.
