1978 Cadillac Seville

The Seville, introduced in May 1975 as an early 1976 model, was Cadillac's answer to the rising popularity of European luxury imports such as Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and BMW. Cadillac had first used the nameplate for a two-door hardtop version of the 1956 Eldorado. 1960 was the last model year for the Eldorado Seville. According to Car and Driver, "The Seville's design - trim dimensions, upright stance, and lack of excessive adornment - appealed to a segment of affluent buyers who were moving away from ostentatious displays of wealth in the post-Nixon era." Additionally, during this period, there was a shift in the market towards smaller cars following the 1973 oil crisis. The Seville was Cadillac's response to this trend, attracting buyers who wanted a smaller vehicle without compromising luxury or prestige. It looks timeless and classy to me.

Original listing "ROAD LEGENDS 1:18 BLACK/WHITE 1957 CHEVROLET BEL AIR POLICE CAR IN VGC-NO BOX"

Obviously this looks nothing like a 57 Chevy Belair. Seller got confused because there is a 57 Chevy in this police chief motif, which I also have, missing side mirrors.

But that's another story.

Featured in Post: This is my 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Seville Police Chief by Road Legends.

If you said this car looks like it was covered in crap, it wouldn't be an entirely inaccurate assessment. This car STANK like cow shit! When I opened the shipping box it hit me. I assume it was stored in a barn with livestock. IT SMELLED BAAAD! I had to throw out the box and all the packing material immediately. I worried it might actually be a bio hazard.

I do not want to even know what that brown substance was incrusted on the hood near the driver side windshield. I sprayed on some grease fighting dish detergent on these stains and left it an hour.

It took another hour of paper towels, detergent, water and rubbing alcohol to get it clean.

Left- Ebay listing >:2

Right- Clean ;2

Think they could have gotten more than $40USD $35USD (my best offer) if they cleaned it up and accurately titled it by make and model.

1958 chevrolet bel air impala convertible

History, The Impala name was first used for the full-sized 1956 General Motors Motorama show car that bore Corvette-like design cues, especially the grille. It was named Impala after the graceful African antelope, and this animal became the car's logo. Painted emerald green metallic, with a white interior, the Impala concept car featured hardtop styling. Clare MacKichan's design team, along with designers from Pontiac, started to establish basic packaging and dimensions for their shared 1958 General Motors "A" body in June. The first styling sketch that would directly influence the finished Chevrolet automobile was seen by General Motors Styling vice president Harley Earlin October. Seven months later, the basic design was developed.

For its debut in 1958, the Impala was distinguished from other models by its symmetrical triple taillights. The Chevrolet Caprice was introduced as a top-line Impala Sport Sedan for model year 1965, later becoming a separate series positioned above the Impala in 1966, which, in turn, remained above the Chevrolet Bel Air and the Chevrolet Biscayne. The Impala continued as Chevrolet's most popular full-size model through the mid-1980s. Between 1994 and 1996, the Impala was revised as a 5.7-liter V8–powered version of the Chevrolet Caprice Classicsedan.

First generation (1958)

1For 1958, GM was promoting their fiftieth year of production, and introduced anniversary models for each brand; Cadillac, Buick, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, and Chevrolet. The 1958 models shared a common appearance on the top models for each brand; Cadillac Eldorado Seville, Buick Roadmaster Riviera, Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday, Pontiac Bonneville Catalina, and the #Chevrolet Bel-Air #Impala.

The Impala was introduced for the 1958 model year as top of the line Bel Air hardtops and convertibles. From the windshield pillar rearward, the 1958 Bel Air Impala differed structurally from the lower-priced Chevrolet models. Hardtops had a slightly shorter greenhouse and longer rear deck. The wheelbase of the Impala was longer than the lower priced models, although the overall length was identical. Interiors held a two-spoke steering wheel and color-keyed door panels with brushed aluminum trim. No other series included a convertible.

The 1958 Chevrolet models were longer, lower, and wider than its predecessors.The 1958 model year was the first with dual headlamps. The tailfins of the 1957 were replaced by deeply sculptured rear fenders. Impalas had three taillights each side, while lesser models had two and wagons just one. The Impalas included crossed-flag insignias above the side moldings, as well as bright rocker moldings and dummy rear-fender scoops.

The standard perimeter-type frame was abandoned, replaced by a unit with rails laid out in the form of an elongated "X." Chevrolet claimed that the new frame offered increased torsional rigidity and allowed for a lower placement of the passenger compartment. This was a transitional step between traditional construction and the later fully unitized body/chassis, the body structure was strengthened in the rocker panels and firewall.However, this frame was not as effective in protecting the interior structure in a side impact crash, as a traditional perimeter frame.

A coil spring suspension replaced the previous year's rear leaf springs, and an air ride system was optional. A 283 cu in (4,640 cc) engine was the standard V8, with ratings that ranged from 185 to 290 horsepower. A "W" block (not to be confused with the big-block) 348 cu in (5,700 cc) Turbo-Thrust V8 was optional, producing 250 hp (190 kW), 280 hp (210 kW), or 315 hp (235 kW). The Ramjet fuel injection was available as an option for the Turbo-Fire 283 V8, not popular in 1958.

A total of 55,989 Impala convertibles and 125,480 coupes were built representing 15 percent of Chevrolet production. The 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air Impala helped Chevrolet regain the number one production spot in this recession year.
