1970 Toronado

What's new for 1970:
For the last year of the original Toronado body style, the front styling was heavily revised losing the concealed headlights. Wheel openings were squared-off, while changes to the rear were more subtle including revised tail lights and a move of the side-markers to the bumpers. Inside, the instrument panel was updated nicely as well.

Identifying a '70:
1970 models are the only year of the original generation Toronado that do not have concealed headlamps. While the rear looks much like the '69 model, rectangular side markers and tail lights were altered as described above, while the script Toronado nameplate on the trunk was replaced with a block letter emblem.
