It was, but I think that just means Torchinsky made a small mistake when putting his article together. According to the Brazilian sites I've consulted, the TL was originally designed in 69 and released in 70 with the front end shown in my pic (which it shared with the sedan version, nicknamed "Zé do Caixao", and the Variant version), and then the design was facelifted in 71 and released in 72. The new front was nicknamed "Cabeça de bagre" ("catfish head"). The sedan was killed before the facelift, so only coupé and Variant models exist with this front design.
