Didnt the 442's of the same years have the swivels also?

Yeah Cutlass & 442 .
I don't think Buick had any and Pontiac had no room I think because of the roofline,floor pan a https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics...616_100311.jpg
nd console size....I could be wrong
We had alot of SJ's & LJ's. .

My '77 Anniversary T/A had 2 tone gold /buff sculptured buckets. A Special Order /GM Show car from Bowser Pontiac. 400 4 speed,WS 6 , T Tops & A/C + every other option ....& 4 wheel Disc Brakes
Never knew they had 4wd. Car went to some squirrel in W Va. Some rich guys jerk off kid.

Definitely 3rd Gen WS-6's had them as well.

Re: Suitable Day 2 Tow Car ? ! ?
 
No not all WS6 cars had 4 wheel disc brakes. 79 and up do.

Do not use that car for a tow car. It's too nice and will make a lousy tow car anyway. There's not enough power.

I am going to get kicked-out of the forum for this, but I think it would be a great tow vehicle with a Modern 6.0 LQ4 or other variation of an "LS" engine.

Keep the outside and interior 100% &quot;day 2&quot; with Rallys (or Aluminum Slots, Cragars, etc), but give it a well-engineered, more efficient engine with the power to tow. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]
