I kinda look at it this way; All the old stuff from the mid 60's until 1977 I call an "A" body due to the larger frame platform. While I understand some 78 and 79's may be considered "A" body's too according to GM, I call them "G" body's due to the smaller frame and platform they're built on. I think most guys here would agree even though we know the they are technically not according to GM. Just like a 1999 Riviera "MAY" be called a "G" body, everyone knows it's really not. That is why GBody is recognized from 1978-1988.

Do not know why folks say that this Riviera is not a G body when GM says it is? GM used the G body for front wheel Riviera and I believe Grand National do a fact check. have a white red green burgundy for sale all completely restored new engines intercoolers added this is a sleeper collectible less than 100 exist, a G body collectible!
Is your car fwd or rwd? If you think all the stuff we discuss here is applicable to your car, go for it. What is it that you don't understand about your car not being a G Body. You are more of a "W" body type. You can jhoin if you want but then again do you have a 7.5 or 8.5
