July 8, 200619 yr http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1982-CADILL...sspagenameZWDVW FWD sucks but Bustle Back Sevilles (1980-1985) are one of the dozen or so exceptions to the rule. I'd love to own an all original diesel Bustle Back with the Olds Oil Burner Rocket 350. That in mind I was just goofing around online when I found this opera coupe on eBay.
July 8, 200619 yr Since when is bobo a fan of opera coupes? I must've missed that one. And if you really are...may I ask why?
July 9, 200619 yr 1. convert it to RWD 2. stick a 572 Rat in it 3. pull up next to any car you can name at a stoplight

July 9, 200619 yr Yes, he is a fan of these cars, it goes back a long long time. Personally, I find them hideous, but bobo seems to enjoy them to a degree.
July 9, 200619 yr Wow, that Seville Opera Coupe is in sad shape . I hope someone restores it to its former glory. Who doesn't love the Opera Coupe? My love affair with the Opera Coupe started back in middle school. Occasionally I would catch a glimpse of one of the original RWD versions in the school parking lot, as someone's mom drove one. It's was the pinnacle of late '70's/early '80's American luxury racheted up a notch.
July 9, 200619 yr Author I'm with Bobo... these cars are different in a quirky & unique way. I'd love a Opera coupe, any opera coupe... but O.B. has the right idea in terms of 1980-85 Seville custonization. Even a healthy Chevy smallblock would liven up whit car's performance if it was to send power to a soild rear axle. :wink: Not hard to improve on a diesel rocket or a 4100.
