Does it have a 231? I bet it has the 231.

 

My mom's first car was the same year Century.  I think the two models were identical except for the front fascia.

I had a 74 when I was 18, and always wished it was a 76/77,  but the earlier design has grown on me over the years. Mine was a 350 4 barrel. With a bunch of timing advance it would get out of its own way.

In reply to Peabody :

I'm of the opinion that Chevrolet's early Colonnade cars looked better than their later ones, and vice versa for Buick and Oldsmobile models.
