1977-79 model.

Is it possible to tell a Deville Sedan and Fleetwood from those model years apart? All i can tell from looking online are slightly different chrome trim (they're larger on the Broughams).

a few here ( somename, AnimatronixX, night cub, Lateef , CougarTim being the ones i can think of ) probably can but i can't unless i have the badge in my face.. :lol:

all i can tell is that its not a 1977 as they had clear turn signal ( at least the NA models )

I'd have to look at the detail, this is from the 1977-79 era, but as Baube said, 1977 is out. Each year had a different grille. As far as difference between the Devilles and Fleetwood, I think they used different hood ornaments. The Devilles have just the crest shield logo and the Fleetwoods have the crest with a wreath around it. At least from the front. Fleetwood I think had wider rocker panels that ran the whole body, not just the mid-section and a thicker padded vinyl roof with a smaller rear window. And the trunk emblem had the wreath again, versus a V on the Devilles.

I think this one is a 1979 Sedan Deville.

It's the upper end of my Cadillac knowledge (too new, not really my business), but I agree with night cub.

[6CD69] Sedan deVille's B-pillar appears to be almost rectangular and not covered with vinyl while [6CB69] Fleetwood Brougham's B-pillar pretends to have a shape that human words can't describe (trapezoid, but not... see what I mean?), covered by the vinyl roof. Accordingly, the frame moldings around the side windows are different.
