Default SF Bay Bridge opener

Does anyone know what year that yellow Corvette was they used along with the other cars for the Bay Bridge opener?
I think it was a 74 Corvette.

I had a look at the video, and it looks like it has a chrome back bumper, so I'm thinking 1971 or 1972
The 1973 and 1974 had no chrome bumper.
Here's the video. Double click on Nascar URL header

Maybe if you speed up the video a little I can figure it out.

1973 had chrome rear bumper and soft nose front. Perhaps it was a '73 if you saw a chrome rear bumper..?

I thought it had both soft font and rear bumpers which would make it a 74.
