Bruce Nunnally Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Q: Dear Greg, I love reading your collector car columns here in Virginia in the Petersburg Progress Index. I am wondering if you can write or comment on the 1976 to 1979 Cadillac Sevilles. I really loved those cars and maybe the Cadillac people will one day bring back the Seville into production. Thanks much. .

winterset Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 What did i miss?? Why did the article say the 1980 Seville was much bigger than the 76-79 seville? They looked the same size to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterset Posted May 10, 2016 Report Share Posted May 10, 2016 Thanks Bruce! Then the article said the 1973-1975 chrysler Imperial had a bustle back. It was the 1983-1985 that did. Everyone knows that chrysler copied the seville styling. Did he mean to say copies appeared "later" on the 1983-1985 Imperial? Also, i thought the bustle back was disliked by many - later the article read the imperial's implementation was "beautiful"! Me thinks things are messed up in the column.

It was the '81-'83 Imperial that looked similar to the Seville. I thought both were good looking cars. The Imperial had fuel injection issues and didn't sell well.
