I know all about how massive those cars were. My dad had one, it was brown with a white top, with a tan interior. It had the 5 spoke mag rims GM used on a lot of their cars during that era. He stopped driving it in 85, and it was not roadworthy when he got rid of it in 98. It would start up and move, but not something you'd wanna get on the roads in. It needed EXTENSIVE work.
