Identifying a '79- A new grill which is unique to '79s. It features four chrome trimmed rectangles on each side of the body colored center divider. The vertical chrome divider for the parking lamps has been eliminated, leaving one parking lamp on each side, which runs the width of two headlamps. In the rear, taillamps are the same as on '78 with the exception of the "rocket" badge on the fender tips is now located above the lamps instead of on them.
