95 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1 Police Cruiser LT1 (Corvette/Impala SS) Interceptor

You are bidding on a blue 1995 Chevrolet Caprice original 9C1 Police Package, with the 5.7 liter LT1 interceptor (stock Corvette) engine.  Transmission completely professionally rebuilt within this past year, with about 5,000 miles left on warranty.  In fact, I spent more than $4,000 having transmission, new Flowmaster welded dual exhaust (pictures), new radiator, all new rubber, hoses, and maintenance items, new shocks, and more.  I have receipts from certified mechanic facility to show repairs & parts.  This car has been in my family for more than 10 years, driven mostly as a second car, and having been parked for a while when the transmission went out, it has relatively low (127,799) miles for its age. 

Car also has a new Alpine CD/USP/iPod dock stereo in the dash.  Original black steel police rims, with classic Chevy center caps.  This car is a hot theft item (LT1 engine worth $1,000 alone), so I had professionally installed a top of the line Viper LCD 2-Way security alarm with remote start and unlock features ($500) to protect my investment.

Recent Repairs Include:

$2,612

Trans Rebuild (@120,968miles); Torque converter; Wheel sensor; Speed Sensor; Flowmaster mufflers & exhaust system installed

$645

4 New shocks; New belt & New belt tensioner

$500

Viper 2-way remote alarm, w/auto start & unlock

$350

New Radiator, upper & lower hoses

$4,107


There are a few minor mechanical repairs left to do, such as leaking oil cooling line under vehicle (about $100), and power steering fluid leaks.  Passenger side exhaust manifold is cracked.  Brakes and tires are around 50% or so, but not urgent.

Body is all original, with typical police use blemishes in finish.  No collision damage of any kind, but the front bumper cover lower valance is cracked off on the driver side (pictures), and rear bumper cover has scratches and a small gash (pictured).

This is the last of the large frame rear-wheel drive muscle cars, and the powerful Corvette engine and rebuilt transmission provide amazing power and performance.  It is truly a pleasure to drive, with unharnessed power both at take-off and high-end power on the top end on the highway.  There are not many cars that have beaten this Caprice in a friendly drag race, and I love the extra feeling of safety in such a large body and framed vehicle.  Unlike the Ford Crown Victoria or Marauder models, the Caprice Police cruiser has a solid limited-slip differential for better performance and handling.  This package was the inspiration for the Impala SS, which also has all the same extra police engine and enhancements, and they added a nice leather interior, etc.  An Impala SS will cost you $10-15,000.

I’m proud I got the car charged up and solid, and someone else can make it look pretty, or just keep it the way I did as an original police weathered with belt buckle scratches in the paint and holes in the trunk from police antennas.  I took a LOT of pictures, so please check it out thoroughly, and GOOD LUCK!

 

Viper LCD 2-Way Security + Remote Start System

Responder LC3 – the 3rd generation of Responder, complete with SST One Mile Range, the new Priority icons and text seen on a 20% larger liquid-crystal display, an onboard lithium-ion rechargeable battery with mini-USB recharging – all in the slimmest display remote on the market.

Features

·          LCD Screen

·          1 Responder LC3 2-Way and 1 5-button 1-Way

·          Up to 1 Mile Range

Responder LC3 – the 3rd generation of Responder, complete with SST One Mile Range, the new Priority icons and text seen on a 20% larger liquid-crystal display, an onboard lithium-ion rechargeable battery with mini-USB recharging – all in the slimmest display remote on the market.

Combining the best features of Responder with all the “New Technology Platform” advances introduced with the Best of Innovations Award-winning Responder LE, Responder LC3 systems come with one 2-Way LC3 SST one mile range remote and a companion 1-way long range remote.

Responder LC3 lets you command and monitor your vehicle like never before, with our Priority icons – simple and prioritized for easy use - plus clear text labels on the large LCD screen. With the Priority™ User Interface, the five buttons control 24 functions on each of two cars! And with the Priority Icon Map™, the most important icons reside in the center of the large LCD screen, 3 times larger than the less-critical icons positioned on the edges of the screen. It’s undeniably the most sophisticated one mile range LCD remote ever!

In remote start mode, if Active Temp Check is selected, Responder LC3 will display Temperature (in either Fahrenheit or Celsius) instead of the time (the default display). Now you can see the actual temperature inside the vehicle, before walking through the weather to get to it! If it isn’t warm enough inside your car yet, use Runtime Reset to extend your runtime. Don’t worry about forgetting about your car – Responder LC3 reminds you 3 minutes before your time runs out, with an audible tone, a vibration, and on the screen.

If anything happens to your vehicle, Responder LC3 notifies you right away if you are within range, playing the Revenger siren tones from inside your pocket. If anything has happened to your vehicle during your absence, LC3 spells out what happened when you unlock your doors: “Shock Sensor” for example.

Or you can silence your car’s siren and only be alerted on your remote, with Silent Mode2 sirenless arming. Arm your alarm with the door open and Responder LC3 will alert you – audibly and with large readable text: “DOOR OPEN”. Responder LC3 gives you an unprecedented level of control.

Only the important icons are displayed - unused icons disappear from the screen to keep the display clean and simple. “Ghosted” icons – outlined icons only without their typical solid body - indicate that you’ve changed something. For instance, while a solid padlock icon shows your alarm is armed and your doors are locked, an outlined padlock indicates your doors are locked in Valet Mode. The words “Valet Mode” appear to make sure you’re clear on the status of your car.

Some of the many New Technology Platform features incorporated into the system include:

·         XpressPort™ - Dock the Innovations Award-winning CANMAX400DEI databus interface into the Responder LC3 CPU, for a direct digital connection to virtually every new vehicle and databus architecture on the planet

·         D2D Serial Data Port – Gives installers plug-and-play connection to all the other XPRESSKIT interfaces

·         Virtual Tach – No tachometer wire connection required

·         Flex Relays Onboard for Remote Start and Light Flash – eliminates the need for additional relays 80% of the time

·         Control Center – combines the Status LED and Valet Switch with the 2-way Antenna, making the switch easy to locate, and eliminating drilling of any holes in the dash

·         Priority User Interface and Features – including SmartStart™, Timer Start, Runtime Reset, TempCheck and Silent Mode2 siren-less arming modes

Stay in touch with your vehicle at all times with Responder LC3!

Nissan Leaf keeps plug-in vehicle sales crown for 6th straight month

Thu, May 1 2014

And Nissan makes it 14 in a row. For the 14th straight month, the all-electric Leaf has had "record sales," according to Nissan's marketing team. What that means is that for that particular month (in this case, April) no matter what year you look at, the car sold more than it ever did before. For April 2014, the 2,088 Leafs sold represents a 7.8-percent increase from 2013. Nissan's director of EV sales and marketing, Toby Perry, said in a statement that the "new market" of Cincinnati made the top 25 list for Leaf sales areas in April, so the car's popularity continues to ebb and flow across the US. Over at Chevy, the Volt sold 1,548 units in April, reaching a year-to-date total of 5,154. The Leaf is outpacing that with 7,272 YTD sales. In 2013, the Volt outsold the Leaf by about 500 vehicles, but Leaf sales are up 33 percent year-over-year while Volt is down 7.1 percent. The Leaf has also outsold the Volt for six straight months. But we're excited for every eco-car sale, and that's why we'll have our monthly detailed write-up of the rest of the plug-ins, hybrids and diesel vehicles available soon. Until then, discuss.

Bring back the Bronco! Trademarks we hope are actually (someday) future car names

Tue, Mar 17 2015

Trademark filings are the tea leaves of the auto industry. Read them carefully – and interpret them correctly – and you might be previewing an automaker's future product plans. Yes, they're routinely filed to maintain the rights to an iconic name. And sometimes they're only for toys and clothing. But not always. Sometimes, the truth is right in front of us. The trademark is required because a company actually wants to use the name on a new car. With that in mind, here's a list of intriguing trademark filings we want to see go from paperwork to production reality. Trademark: Bronco Company: Ford Previous Use: The Bronco was a long-running SUV that lived from 1966-1996. It's one of America's original SUVs and was responsible for the increased popularity of the segment. Still, it's best known as O.J. Simpson's would-be getaway car. We think: The Bronco was an icon. Everyone seems to want a Wrangler-fighter – Ford used to have a good one. Enough time has passed that the O.J. police chase isn't the immediate image conjured by the Bronco anymore. Even if we're doing a wish list in no particular order, the Bronco still finds its way to the top. For now (unfortunately), it's just federal paperwork. Rumors on this one can get especially heated. The official word from a Ford spokesman is: "Companies renew trademark filings to maintain ownership and control of the mark, even if it is not currently used. Ford values the iconic Bronco name and history." Trademarks: Aviator, AV8R Company: Ford Previous Use: The Aviator was one of the shortest-run Lincolns ever, lasting for the 2003-2005 model years. It never found the sales success of the Ford Explorer, with which it shared a platform. We Think: The Aviator name no longer fits with Lincoln's naming nomenclature. Too bad, it's better than any other name Lincoln currently uses, save for its former big brother, the Navigator. Perhaps we're barking up the wrong tree, though. Ford has made several customized, aviation themed-Mustangs in the past, including one called the Mustang AV8R in 2008, which had cues from the US Air Force's F-22 Raptor fighter jet. It sold for $500,000 at auction, and the glass roof – which is reminiscent of a fighter jet cockpit – helped Ford popularize the feature. Trademark: EcoBeast Company: Ford Previous Use: None by major carmakers.

Watch a camo'ed next-gen Chevy Volt go ice driving

Tue, Dec 23 2014

Teasers for the 2016 Chevy Volt continue, The Bowtie showing us in this latest outing how its range-extended hybrid dances on ice and snow. It will only take 42 seconds of your life so don't expect an Arctic challenge, but if you in the snow regions had any doubts about how it will handle the frozen goods, this should help assuage them. The bigger and better, more powerful and faster Volt - able to run regular fuel - will get out from under its camo at the North American International Auto Show next month. For now, enjoy the way it moves its hips in the video above. News Source: Chevrolet via YouTube, Facebook Detroit Auto Show Chevrolet Videos
