Identifying a '69:
1968 and 1969 Toronado's share overall front styling, with the exception of the grille mesh. 1968 models feature a honeycomb pattern, while the '69s have have an elongated egg crate pattern. The biggest difference is in the rear, where 1968 models retain the sloping quarters and trunk of previous years while 1969 models have a squared-off and elongated rear.
