Default Early or late build car? 71 Nova SS

Hi guys, I am looking over a project that I inherited (71 Nova SS) and am wondering how to tell if the car was an early build car based on a build date code of 08E0. Would it be August of 70 or 71? When did the new models start being built?

More info for those interested

Willow Run built
754 13 13 PNT
08E0 A 2 0561

Looks like 5th week of Aug. 1970,for a 1971 model.
August,especially 5th week,was a period when the new models were rolling.
That,and the fact that interior code 754 & paint code 13 were both exclusive to the 1971 model.

Ok thank you. The car was pretty loaded up having AC, power steering, and a console automatic with gauges. I have the original 12 bolt and trans but the motor is long gone. It was repainted a darker gray at some point.
