Thanks for the help......I really like the small window look but also like the disc brakes on front starting in 71(?)..
I'm going to stay with the old school 6 with manual trans...

The small window was an option in '67 which was dropped completely in '68. 1971 was the first year for front disc brakes with drums on the rear.

This is a pretty good overview:

Just the opposite.... Small window was standard in '67 and the big back window was an option....
