    Why not try keeping your negativity to yourself.Instead of creating a pointless post.

    No-one is forced to read it. Just look at the title and pass it by. As far as the web search goes, why do it if the information is found here so easily?

    the GLS's were german made, and are 77's onwards. not sure of the exact date of 'change over'
    So mine must have been a swallow tail as it was a '76 build LS 4 door. I always regretted not keeping it for restoration.

    most probably. Although just cause it was an aussie built 76'er, doesn't nessecarily mean it had the 'swallowtail' rear panel. which is why I don't regard our aussie built cars as 'true' swallowtails, but that's just me. Only cause we got a mixed back of bits when it comes to swallowtail (or 'early') parts.

    And yes, you should have kept it for resto!

    Hardly a pointless post if it makes people realise not to do it anymore.
