That's a question. Most of sources point to 1979 and it has a 1979 grille. But...

So, if that can not be made before 1979 because of grille, 1980?

It's out of an ad in an magazine and mentioned, that the year is very close to 1976

It looks for me that puzzle picture is based on this ad. And here we see that base car is 1979 Cadillac.
Am I wrong in my first suggestion?

I have to accept, that you are totally right, seeing the ad now in full resolution. I only had a very small version of it, which described the car as 1977 :thumbsup:
