'79 Questions

[crown14]

Tell me about your '79 Cutlass (or '78 even, I suppose)!

My '79 CS is white (no vinyl top) with white seats, red carpet and dash, power windows, locks, seat (60/40 bench) and that is it that I can tell. Maybe courtesy light option? It has trunk, hood, underdash, glovebox lights but maybe that was standard in '79? Im new to G body ownership I suppose so I am trying to get a feel for what other people have- and if this was an unusual car.
