Very few 73-77 GM A-bodies at the shows. Other than some low mile granny Churchmobiles like mine most were driven into the ground until they were to the point of no return and never rescued or restored like the "investment worthy" pre 73's.

My 73 S always gets plenty of compliments and look overs wherever I stop. Guys who frequent car shows like it when something "different" shows up. Early Camaro's, Chevelles, Mustangs, and 57 Chebbies are all great classics but get a little stale after looking at hundreds of them.

If you are referring to the Red with Black vinyl top, it is a 67. Split headlamps with turn signals between them. The 66 had the turn signals in the bumper.
Sweet looking car though.

True that. My bad. Didn't look close enough as I was scrolling down. I have always liked that bodystyle. Thanks for the correction.

Yeah, its a common mistake. I just sold my 66 so for those of us who have owned them and were put in a position of telling those that commented on our "67s" that in fact they were a 66, it never leaves you.

My 67 Cutlass Supreme is the same color combo, Spanish red with a black vinyl top and black interior.
