    my first car was a 77 Cadillac sedan devill. Dang that was a fun car. 427 or 425 I don't recall. Made a few guys with small blocks look silly with that grocery getter

    Don’t worry bout these characters Kev - they’ve all been drinking.

    Mt Diesel in Missoula has been putting out some fine brute car engines lately.

    Apart from the one I bought.

    The wheels fell off, and I’m still waiting on instructions on how to reinstall them.

    My grandfather gave my brother a 77 yellow 4 door Deville and me a black 79 2 door. My brother took his to the track and it ran a high 17's quarter mile.

    Mine had all the options, power door locks, power windows and a sunroof. It was in good shape but needed a lot of work and I don't have room in the driveway. I would have loved to lower it down, stuff some big rims underneath it, rebuild the motor. I didn't want it to just sit at my folks house so I sold it.

    They bring good money in decent shape. They are still very much a status symbol in the OG community.
