So !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! 's earlier !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! post got me thinking about that brief Malaise Era trend of cars with stacked quad rectangular sealed-beam headlights. I've actually owned one before... a 1976 Buick Century Custom wagon (similar to the one pictured, which is a '77). One of my favorite cars among the 11 I've owned.

I can think of several models that caught this styling trend back in the day:
-1976-77 Buick Century sedan/wagon and Regal sedan
-1976-77 Chevrolet Chevelle (except the Laguna models)
-1976-77 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
-1976-77 Chevrolet El Camino
-1978-79 Chrysler Cordoba
-1977-78 Dodge Moncaco
-1977-79 Ford LTD II
-1976-77 GMC Sprint
-1977-78 Plymouth Fury
Also, can anyone else think of any other cars that came with such a setup? The '78-80 Granada/Monarch come close, but the lower lights are actually parking/turn signal lights. Did any of the foreign brands use this styling trick?

I know we're doing cars, but the mid 80's Suburban came to mind immediately.
