SERIOUS SELLER WANTS SERIOUS BUYER
I am an over the road trucker will be back in town the weekend of the 13th would like to sell it then.
Bought this caprice about 6 years ago and it has been kept most of that time in my garage. It is in pretty good condition for its age. Except what I mention the car is original this means it is a 35ish old car. The trunk is clean no rust. and the floor pans are also rust free.

I put a posi rear with 373 gears in.

It also has a rebuilt turbo 350 with a nice shift kit.

New Headers and dual exhaust.

It has a 305 motor ( at first I was told it was a 350 motor then later on someone else said it is a 305. So I'll list it as a 305 and if it ends up being a 305 that ok. It has a lifter or valve tap.

It has an original am/fm CB radio.

It also has rear air shocks and blocks for the front springs. Was planning on putting new coils in the front but didn't get there.

It has larger wheels and tires that come with it. Not the big 20's. Yes the rear wheels stick a little pass the quarter panel.


Now for the bad news.

Yes it needs a paint job.

Yes the interior is dirty and has rips. Carpet needs replaced.

Yes the vinyl roof has a rip or two.

Yes there is a couple dings and I think just 2 or 3 rust spots.

When the mechanic was under it he said it was the cleanest 30 plus old car ha has seen. Passenger door is pushed in by one of my daughters using there butt to push it closed so I'm told. If I think of anything else I'll add it.
So it was parked in my garage last summer expecting to work on it this year part just don't have time.
 
Note : I have over $3500.00 in the car.

DEPOSIT OF 100.00 POSTAL MONEY ORDER MUST BE SENT SO I RCEIVE IT IN 3 DAYS. BALANCE BROUGHT WITH YOU WHEN YOU PICK UP THE CAPRICE WITH 7 DAYS AT END OF AUCTION.  

CAPRICE MUST BE PICKED UP WITH IN 7 DAYS WITH CASH WHEN YOU PICK IT UP.


On Mar-12-14 at 23:20:15 PDT, seller added the following information:

Sorry the part of the ad saying I will be out of town until the 13 is WRONG. I am a over the trucker but I'm off right now due to a medical leave so the caprice can be picked up anytime you want.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.

Engine block heater issues force GM to recall 324,226 diesel heavy duty trucks

Tue, May 7 2019

General Motors has issued a recall on 324,226 diesel heavy duty trucks that could be susceptible to short circuits, and consequently, potential fire. The recall affects several models of heavy duty Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierras with optional engine block heaters. GM is recalling seven different truck models spread across three years. The recall affects the 2017-2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD, 2017-2019 Silverado 3500HD, 2019 Silverado 4500HD, 2019 Silverado 5500HD, and 2019 Silverado 6500HD, plus the 2017-2019 GMC Sierra 2500HD and 2017-2019 Sierra 3500HD. Specifically, it includes these models with the 6.6-liter Duramax diesel engines and the optional engine block heater. The recall technically deals not with the engine block heater itself, but the way it is connected. According to NHTSA campaign No. 19V328000, the engine block heater cord or the terminals that link the cord to the heater could short circuit. A short circuit could potentially damage engine components and result in a fire. According to The Detroit News, 19 fires have been reported but nobody has been injured. GM has yet to figure out a fix, and thus has not yet released a notification schedule for affected customers. If you believe your vehicle is part of the recall, contact GM customer service at 1-586-596-1733 and use reference number N182206310.
