Nope. 70 is all by itself. 71 is very similiar to the 72-74. The 72-74 has two additional braces attached which could be removed to make it look like a 71.

I do not know what year it was from, but Wildcat had a Cuda header panel hanging up in their showroom when Cody and I were there last month. You can contact them through http://www.wildcatmopars.com/

Best of luck,
Barry

I have a header panel layin around because when I got the convertible, it had a 72 grill in it and I had to find a 70 to replace it.  PM if interested.
