i'm pretty sure that '78 was a transition year for alfetta sedans.  there
are a lot of items, including drive shaft donuts, that changed sometime
during '78.

my guess is that the fender/windshield changes happened *during* 1978, not
between '77 and '78.  i could take measurements on earnest and provide a
serial # if somebody cares enough to try to identify exactly where the
change occurred.

later,
