Didn't the estate wagons have the Electra grille? Also since it has 4 ventiposts, one would assume it has the whole front end of the Electra?

Adam,

I always thought the same like you do, but the 1970 Electra's overall lenght, wheelbase and front/rear thread is bigger.

The model year 1971 Estate Wagon was based on the Electra though......
