How can you tell it's a Newport? Also, if it really is a Newport, wasn't 1979 the only year the police-package Newports were available? |

I think they had A-38 Newports in early 1980 too,but I think this car is actually a 1980-81 Plymouth Gran Fury??? |

Is the Newport the most rare of A-38s for police and for civilians? |

According to the information I know of, the R-body Newport was only available as a police-package vehicle for 1979, and it was subsequently replaced by the Gran Fury name for 1980-1981. |

I can tell by the calandre:la forme de la calandre est celle des Newport 79-80,la calandre des Plymouth Gran Fury de la même période étant très légèrement différente. |

"I can tell by the grille: the shape of the grille is that of the Newport 79-80, the grille of the Gran Fury of the same period is slightly different." |

The grill seems to be the same to me: /images/059/156.jpg I'm probably missing something  |

The 1980 Chrysler version had the Chrysler letters across the top of the grille shell with a star hood ornament. (The '79 had a square ornament.) The 1980 Plymouth had the Plymouth name at the corner of the shell and a Plymouth style hood ornament. The Plymouth mesh seems darker, imparting more of a blacked-out look. Here is a nice pix of a 1980 Gran Fury: Link to "upload.wikimedia.org" -- Last edit: 2012-07-14 15:00:20 |
