Up for sale today is a 1968 Chevrolet Caprice Classic 4 door. This is my father in laws car and he is no longer able to enjoy it, as it should be enjoyed, due to some health issues. I will list all the facts I know about the car. It is in good condition given the age of the car. It is a 4 door without the post, which makes it look almost as cool as a 2 door. It shows 60839 miles on the odometer, but I can not say that is correct except the car is in REALLY NICE shape if it has 160839 miles on it. It is green with a newer black vinyl top and green cloth interior. It's powered by a 327/250 horse engine and has a Powerglide transmission and factory posi-traction rear end, with power brakes. The drive train is "numbers matching" to the best of our knowledge. It still has exhaust manifolds, the cables installed in case of a motor mount failure and correct carb. The water pump has been replaced as has the radiator and exhaust from the manifolds back. The engine seems to start and run fine. It is an older carb motor, so it can be fussy in the cold start up mode. Once it gets a bit of heat in it, it runs fine. The transmission seems to shift as it should. The brakes are fine and work as well as drum brakes should. The interior is in fair shape for its age. It has a nice headliner and dash. The steering wheel, which is a tilt steering wheel, has a crack and so does the dash pad. The gauge cluster looks nice. All the glass is in very nice clear condition. The rear package tray is "wavy" and could be replaced. The carpet is rescent but was not cut correctly on the driver side front. Door panels are reasonably clean except for some water stains due to windows left rolled down a bit. They may clean up. They don't appear to have gotten wavy yet. The window seals are cracked but not bad enough for the door panels to have gotten wet from them. It still has its original AM/FM radio, I don't know how well it works. The clock does not work, but how many did after the first year or so? Back seat has a water stains on both sides, but is in nice shape otherwise. Front seat needs to be recovered. It has torn in the seams, especially on the driver side. All seat belts are there and are original. The exterior has had a repaint a number of years ago. It just wasn't prepped right, because it is chipping in a few places near corners and moldings. There is a dent on the passenger front door. I don't know if it can be pulled out. I think it can. There is a chip on the front of the car. The only real obvious rust I can easily see is on the lower edge of the left rear quarter. The car came from Michigan, but was rust proofed when new and really has held up nicely for its age. I wasn't able to take pictures of the bottom of the car, but I have seen it a few months back and it looks sound. The trunk looks sound, but the seal may be starting to leak and should be replaced. I say a small amount of moisture when I took the pictures. I was going to pull the trunk mat for a couple of pictures, but it seemed to be stuck. I did not want to tear it up trying to pull it back. The spare tire is a bias ply tire. I don't know if it is original. All of the turn signals, headlights, high beams, interior lights and backup lights work as does the horn and key buzzer. The under hood and trunk light also work. The car rides on stock steel wheels with all four original hub caps and newer radial tires which seem to have good thread left. It is missing the right rear wheel well opening molding but the others are there. All the chrome seems descent, there again the car is about 46 years old!! As I said, the top was recently replaced and shows no signs of rust under it. All the stainless moldings look very nice for a old car and I believe them to be original. Most reproductions are very thin and flimsy. These seem pretty sturdy. Besides the power steering, power brakes and posi, it also has an AM/FM radio, under hood and trunk lights which still light up, tilt wheel. I have a bunch of pictures but can't post them all SO PLEASE ask any questions and ask for more pictures and I will try to answer any questions and get more pictures to you. There is a reserve and it also is available locally so I may end the auction early. If you win the auction, I need a $500.00 deposit made to my Pay Pal account and the balance made in cash within 14 days of the end of the auction unless you make arrangements with me. If the balance is made other than in cash, I will hold the car and title till all funds have cleared. I can work with you on shipping arrangements if needed, but all arrangements are up to the buyer. I have had previous interest by overseas buyers, but just don't feel comfortable with that....SORRY. Thanks. |

10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon
Thu, Sep 22 2022If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved — dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of “around $30,000.” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.
Next-generation Chevrolet Colorado breaks cover in new spy photos
Tue, May 25 2021The next-generation Chevrolet Colorado broke cover in this fresh set of spy photos this week, giving us a glimpse of what to expect when GM's compact trucks are replaced in what is expected to be either 2023 or 2024. Thanks to its still-extensive camouflage, this prototype doesn't give away a ton about the new Colorado's styling, but in profile, it appears as though the swoopy, upswept rear cab line might become a thing of the past. We wouldn't be surprised to see the new Colorado adopt a more angular, squared-off look more akin to that of its big brother, the half-ton Silverado. The Silverado is also expected to donate what may be the new Colorado's only powertrain. Taking a cue from Ford, Chevy is expected to offer the next-gen Colorado with just a turbocharged four-cylinder engine — the new corporate 2.7T in this instance. The large, 310-horsepower four-pot can easily take over for the 3.6L V6 currently available in the GM twins and one-up the 270-hp Ranger to boot. This would mark the end of both a V6 and diesel option being offered in GM's midsize trucks, and tracks with the company's slow, silent effort to eliminate lower-margin models. We say "trucks" because, well, whatever happens with Chevy is likely to translate to GMC. The Canyon will be due for replacement at the same time, and will likely carry on as a re-skin of Chevy's offering. We're not yet certain exactly when Chevrolet will start selling the next-gen Colorado, but given the reasonably complete state of this prototype, we expect it won't be long now. Rumors suggest it could hit the market in 2023 as a 2024 model. Related Video: The Best Midsize Pickup: Ranger vs Gladiator vs Tacoma vs Colorado
2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696
Fri, Sep 17 2021In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.
