Default Identify my Cutlass cause I want another one!

OK, sadly my financially difficult teenage years and early 20's took a toll on the Cutlass I had worked so hard to build. I long for that car! I had this car from 1986 to 1989. I was t-boned in '87 by a drunk driver. Spent a couple of years repairing it and then had to get rid of it upon receiving my 2nd child!

Here's the thing. I've been unable to (except once when I didn't have the dough) find a model like it. I'll describe it:
1977 Cutlass S
350/350
Vinyl top with chrome metal strip between the vinyl and sheet metal
No hood/grill emblem
double stacked tail lights (not the one piece vertical kinds)
It seemed fastback-ish, if there was such a thing (dealer called it that)
Supreme style rear windows with 4 sides, like a sideways, slanted rectangles
Bucket seats
Middle console
Floor shifter
Higher speed speedometer

Anyhow, I've attached a couple of pix. It just seems that I can't find this combo. I've seen many aspects of each, just not set up this way. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rick
P.S. I'm not a newbie. Somehow I lost my old profile.

In 1977 the government mandated the 85 MPH speedometer so if you had a 120 MPH it was transplanted from a 1976. There was a fast back with the "double stacked" tail lights, but they didn't produce many of them because the Supreme was so popular.

So it was a fastback. I thought it was pretty rare. I could never really find another like it around. What are the #'s? How many were made? I miss that car!

I don't know that you're going to find any good production numbers for those cars. The 73-77 cars are the "forgotten ones" as far as GM A bodies go.
