difference between years & suspension?

[Major Stan]

Hi,

I have been searching hard for a Newell and have looked at 4 different ones. This is where I am confused, One was a mid 70's newell actually a 1975 with airbags in back and leaf springs in the front. And then I looked at a 1982 and it had a different suspension then the 1975. How many different suspensions are out there? I drove the 75 and liked the way it drove but I have been told that one should stay away from the suspension on the older Newells. What are the pro's & con's of the suspension used on the Classics? and what year did Newell go to Air Bags all the way around?

Thank You,
Stan

I am still trying to find an answer to this one.

Thanks,
