OFFERED IS MY 1995 CHEVROLET CAPRICE CLASSIC WAGON THAT I HAVE OWNED FOR THE LAST 5 OR 6 YEARS AND HAVE PUT THE LAST 90000 MILES ON OR SO.


VEHICLE IS LOCATED AT MY HOME IN MYERSVILLE MARYLAND ZIP CODE 21773.  I'M ABOUT 2 MILES OFF OF INTERSTATE 70.  IF YOU NEED TIME TO ARRANGE PICKUP OR SHIPPING,  I CAN STORE THE CAR FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, BUT YOU MUST MAIL PAYMENT IMMEDIATELY.   IF YOU OPT TO PICK UP IN PERSON, PAYMENT MUST BE IN GREEN CASH.  NO CHECKS, IOU'S, NO CREDIT CARDS AND NO PAYPAL EXCEPT FOR THE DEPOSIT.  YOU ARE WELCOME TO DRIVE THE CAR BEFORE PAYMENT TO CONFIRM ALL OF MY INFORMATION ABOUT THE RIDE ETC. ETC.  

HERE IS THE BASIC STORY ON THE CAR:

WHILE I BELIEVE THAT YOU COULD DRIVE THIS WAGON FROM MARYLAND TO CALIFORNIA WITHOUT ANY BREAK DOWN CONCERNS OR PROBLEMS, THE FACT IS THAT THE CAR NEEDS SOME WORK.  FOR THE FIRST FEW YEARS THAT I OWNED IT, IT WAS A GREAT CAR THAT DIDN'T NEED MANY MECHANICAL REPAIRS.  HOWEVER, IT SEEMED LIKE AROUND 120,000 OR SO, IT WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT EVERY MONTH .  MOSTLY SMALL STUFF LIKE HUBS, WHEEL BEARINGS, WINDOW REGULATOR, ALTERNATORS, STARTER AND THAT SORT OF THING.  BUT THEN THE WATER PUMP LEAKED WHICH TOOK OUT THE OPTISPARK A FEW  WEEKS LATER AND THE REPAIRS BECAME MORE EXPENSIVE.  AFTER THE WATER PUMP REPLACEMENT AND THE OPTISPARK REPLACEMENT I DECIDED THAT I NEEDED A NEW RIDE.  I ORDERED A NEW TRUCK BUILT THE WAY I WANTED IT AND ABOUT A WEEK LATER THE TRANSMISSION  WENT BAD ON THE WAGON.  $2500 LATER FOR THE JASPER TRANSMISSION AND  INSTALLATION, I MADE A DEAL WITH MY WIFE THAT I WOULDN'T INVEST ANY MORE SIGNIFICANT MONEY IN THE CAR AFTER MY TRUCK WAS DELIVERED.  THAT WAS ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO OR SO.  SINCE THEN, WHEN LITTLE THINGS WENT BAD THAT I WOULD HAVE FIXED BEFORE, I JUST PUT A BAND AID ON IT TRYING TO BUY SOME TIME BEFORE SHE HAD TO GO.  NEXT THING I KNEW, THE AC HAD TO BE CHARGED TWICE A SUMMER,  THE ANTENNA ONLY GOES HALF WAY UP,  THE FRONT PASSENGER WINDOW REGULATOR WENT BAD OR SOMETHINGS IS CAUSING THE WINDOW TO GO DOWN SIDEWAYS IN THE DOOR WHEN YOU TRY TO PUT IT DOWN, THE BRAKES ARE STARTING TO MAKE NOISE IN THE FRONT AND THE MICHELIN X ONES, WHILE HAVING BEEN GREAT TIRES, ARE PRETTY WORN, BUT STILL NOT BALD OR DANGEROUS.  EVERY NOW AND THEN YOU GET AN OIL BURNING SMELL EVEN THOUGH THE REAR MAIN SEAL WAS DONE WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WAS DONE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO OR LESS.  SO OBVIOUSLY, THERE IS SOME SORT OF LEAK OTHER THAN THE NOW REPLACED REAR MAIN SEAL.  MOST RECENTLY, THE POWER STEERING PUMP STARTED WHINNING, SO I ADDED POWER STEERING FLUID,  ABOUT 500 MILES LATER I NEEDED TO ADD MORE FLUID, THEN MORE FLUID AFTER 300 MILES AND NOW IT PISSES IT OUT ABOUT AS FAST AS I ADD IT INCLUDING THE PRESTONE STOP LEAK FLUID.  I THINK IT NEEDS A NEW PS PUMP BADLY AND I MEAN YESTERDAY,  ALSO,  I PULLED THE DESIGNATED AIR SUSPENSION FUSE BECAUSE WHAT I THINK MUST HAVE BEEN THE SUSPENSION PUMP WAS MAKING GROANING NOISES WHEN I HAD IT LOADED DOWN WITH STUFF IN THE BACK.      

IT'S SEEMS STRANGE TO SAY THIS OF AN OLD CAR THAT NEEDS OBVIOUS MULTIPLE REPAIRS, BUT TO ANSWER THE MOST COMMONLY ASK QUESTION REGARDING THIS OLD CAR, YES I BELIEVE THIS WILL MAKE IT FROM MY HOME IN MARYLAND TO ANYWHERE YOU WANT TO DRIVE IT INCLUDING AS FAR AS CALIFORNIA.   THE ONLY URGENT ITEM IS THE POWER STEERING PROBLEM WHICH I THINK IS THE PUMP.  THE AC CURRENTLY IS NICE AND COLD, ALL OTHER BUTTONS WORK GREAT INCLUDING SEATS, CLIMATE CONTROL MIRRORS, RADIO ETC. ETC. ETC.  NO WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON AND NO COVER UPS WERE DONE.   I AM PRETTY SURE THE JASPER TRANSMISSION WARRANTY TRANSFERS WITH OWNERSHIP OF THE CAR.  I'M NOT KIDDING, WITH THE POWER STEERING PUMP PROBLEM FIXED, I WOULD FEEL SAFE HEADING TO CALIFORNIA FROM MARYLAND TOMORROW.  THE OIL CHANGES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN DONE ON TIME OR USUALLY A LITTLE EARLY.  IN FACT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I HAD THE OIL CHANGE DONE, NEW AIR FILTER AND WIPER BLADES INSTALLED.  IT DRIVES SMOOTH AND STRAIGHT AND DOESN'T PULL AT ALL.  HAS GREAT POWER AND I'VE ADDED 44K EVERY 15,000 MILES OR SO FOR YEARS.  

THE CAR HAS BEEN OUTSIDE FOR 99% OF IT'S LIFE AND HAS RUST ON THE LEFT REAR AS MANY OF THESE WAGONS WILL.   IT ALSO  HAS SCUFFS AND SCRATCHES ALL OVER THE PLACE FROM 155,000 AND NEARLY 20 YEARS OF USE.  THE MILEAGE LISTED WILL BE "AND COUNTING" BECAUSE I DO STILL DRIVE THE CAR.    

ANYWAY, THERE YOU HAVE IT , $1000 AND NO RESERVE OR $1300 BUY IT NOW.   I THINK THE HUB CAPS ALONE SELL FOR $100 ON EBAY AND THE NOW TWO YEAR OLD TRANS WAS $1500-$2000 NOT INCLUDING INSTALLATION.   SO, MAYBE THIS CAN BE A PARTS CAR IF YOU DON'T WANT TO FIX IT?  OF COURSE, YOU CAN JUST DO WHAT I'VE DONE FOR YEARS AND THAT IS AVOID PUTTING THE PASSENGER WINDOW DOWN, LIVE WITH THE HALF UP ANTENNA WHICH STILL GETS GOOD RECEPTION, CHARGE THE AC TWICE A YEAR ETC. ETC I THINK THE SCRAP VALUE IS $500 OR MORE BASED ON THE WEIGHT, I JUST THINK IT'S STILL WORTH MORE THAN JUST SCRAP.  

SORRY ABOU ALL THE TYPING MISTAKES AND GRAMMER MISTAKES.  IT'S LATE AND I'M TIRED.  

ONE LAST THING.   THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN SMOKED IN AND I THINK I'M THE SECOND OWNER.  IT HAD EITHER 59 OR 69 K WENT I BOUGHT IT FROM THE ESTATE OF AN OLD FELLA THAT DIED.

GM to build outgoing Silverado and Sierra until late 2019

Tue, Nov 6 2018

As it has done with previous generations, General Motors is keeping the outgoing versions of its 1500 pickups in production despite the arrival of the all-new 2019 Chevrolet Silverado and 2019 GMC Sierra. The production of the previous, K2 generation models will begin to be wound down gradually, according to Automotive News, starting with crew cabs "early next year," and double and regular cab models following during "the early second half of next year." The old model trucks will continue to be built into "late 2019" based on market demand, GM's spokesperson Kim Carpenter said. The Chevrolet will go by the name Silverado LD, with the GMC Sierra designation still to be announced. Some of the outgoing models are built by sharing the assembly work between two GM plants. Partially finished Silverado and Sierra double cab bodies are shipped from Fort Wayne, Ind., to Oshawa, Ont., where the trucks are completed, including receiving paint. This eases the workload in Fort Wayne, where production of the new T1 generation trucks started in July 2018. In January, the Silao plant in Mexico will take on the duties of building new generation regular cab and crew cab trucks. Carpenter also said that the "Oshawa shuttle," as the shared production is called, has been very successful. As a result, 60,000 more trucks will be built than what the original production forecast initially called for. GM's latest quarterly profits, disclosed last week to be $1 billion, have been far higher than expected and will result in full-year profits far higher than what had been predicted in light of steel tariffs. GM isn't the only truck maker taking a similar multi-generation approach for 2019. Both the outgoing and redesigned Ram 1500 are in production, with the previous generation being dubbed Ram 1500 Classic. Related Video:

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.
