1994 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Station Wagon on 2040-cars
Vancouver, Washington, United States
1994 Caprice “COPO” Station Wagon. Garage kept Southern California car with 153,000 highway miles. Zero rust, no accidents or damage history. PS, PB, PW, PDL, AC, CC, power mirrors and drivers seat with aftermarket keyless entry. 8 passenger with rear fold down seat. Everything in the car works and difficult to find in this condition. Original no wood white car with grey interior. This car is 1 of 1 built in 1994 with specific options through comp nine VIN decoder. There were approximately 13,000 LT1 powered ‘94-’96 Caprice wagons before they were discontinued in 1996. This is a fine example of the last of the generation. I've owned the car for 3 years and put 5,000 miles on it. I purchased the car to have something to tow my race car to the track and fun to drive on the street. I have since sold my race car and never got to the point of towing with the car. The wagon is visually stock appearing but has had the following upgrades performed since I’ve owned the car and includes all receipts: Engine- All tune-up parts have been replaced on the stock 260 HP 5.7L LT1 engine. Spark plugs, Magnacore plug wires, AC delco O2 sensors, PCV valve, fuel filter and air filter. Lower radiator hose and coolant replaced as well. Cap and rotor replace by previous owner. Mobil 1 5W-30 synthetic oil just changed. Car has a performance PCM tune from PCM4Less and runs on 92 octane fuel and uses a 160*F thermostat. Car runs very strong. Exhaust- Full 2.5” mandrel bent catback exhaust system with Pypes stainless steel X-pipe, large case Dynomax “hemi” super turbo mufflers, sedan mandrel bent tail pipes modified for use on a wagon with Dynomax race bullet mufflers used as resonators. Tail pipes exit in stock location and were fabricated to look just like stock but larger diameter. Very quiet with no drone. Transmission- Rebuilt original Street/Strip 4L60E transmission. It has the Beast sunshell, Raybestos pro band and 3/4 Zpak clutches. Borg Warner 29 element sprag, Sonnax super hold OD servo, bushing kit, thrust washer kit, rebuilt pump assembly with .500 boost valve and Sonnax HP pump slide spring, Transgo HD2 valve body kit, all new frictions, steels, gaskets, electronics and filter. Filled with Dextron VI synthetic fluid. A high-end Level III, IV, build etc… that will hold up to 6-700 HP or heavy duty towing. The car has an OEM LT1 Corvette torque converter. Shift points have been reprogrammed for more spirited driving. Rear-end- Rebuilt original 8.5/8.6” rear end with 4.10 gears with an Eaton Truetrac differential and custom made ABS reluctor so the ABS functions. Synthetic fluid and new carrier bearings during set-up. Rear brakes are new. I’ve only taken one highway trip of a couple hundred miles and average 20MPG. Wheels/Tires- Vintage 15” steel wheels for the 5x5 bolt pattern that accept factory dog dish poverty caps. They have been powder coated gloss white and have new 235/75/15 XL load range tires. Very rare dog dish hub caps from ‘63 full size Biscayne or ‘65-66 Nova. They are good driver quality but have some cracks and splits. Suspension- Car has been aligned and has Monroe sensatrac shocks and Airlift air bags have been installed in the rear of the car in anticipation for towing. Misc- The stock headlights have been updated to HID and are 4300K in color like an OEM BMW bi-xenon headlight. The factory air pump has been removed from the car per General Motors Technical Service Bulletin and included with the sale. I’ve run the car through Washington State emissions for local buyers . Front and rear wiper blades also replaced. As far as flaws, the driver’s side carpet has wear. I have custom made over-sized floor mats in the car so the wear is not visible and includes a custom made cargo area mat. There is general light interior wear but shows well as does the exterior. The only mechanical items on the to-do list is a small exhaust leak at the passenger side manifold area at cold start-up and some driveline vibration on the hwy. I have the original owners manual and window sticker as well. Many thousands spent updating the car to be a unique tow vehicle and fun daily driver. Let me know if you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment for viewing. Thanks for looking! |

Leak reveals GM's 2017 heavy duty diesel trucks to get 910 lb-ft of torque [UPDATE]
Tue, Sep 27 2016UPDATE: Chevrolet officially announced specs for the 2017 Silverado HD and the rumors were true. The truck's new Duramax 6.6-liter turbo-diesel V8 puts out 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque. Chevrolet says the new motor produces 19 percent more torque and 12 percent more horsepower, while producing 35 percent fewer emissions. Overall, the new engine is a big improvement over the current motor, which generates 397 horsepower and 765 pound-feet of torque. According to Truck Trend, GM's newest heavy duty pickup trucks will pick up quite a bit more power and torque. The publication spotted a recent GM Powertrain ordering catalog that had the engine specs for the 2017 model year and managed to get some screenshots before the catalog was taken down, and they can be viewed here. The screenshots revealed that the 6.6-liter turbodiesel V8 powering the Silverado and Sierra heavy duty models will boast 445 horsepower and 910 lb-ft of torque. This is a substantial gain over the current models' 397 horsepower and 765 lb-ft of torque, and as Truck Trend points out, it exceeds the Ford Super Duty line's horsepower output of 440, but comes short of the 925 lb-ft rating. Truck Trend credits part of this output gain to the new intake system GM will introduce on the 2017 heavy duties. The intake gets 60 percent of its air from a scoop on the hood, with the other 40 percent coming from behind one of the front fenders. GM doesn't reveal horsepower figures in the press release about the scoop, but it does say the cooler air helps with maintaining the engine's output, and that the scoop does produce a ram-air affect, providing more air at speed. As we know, more air plus more fuel equals more power, but there's likely more to the power increase in this engine than only the intake.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
