This amazing “survivor”, all original, numbers matching, 1984
Chevrolet Caprice Estate Wagon WITH the 3rd row "Jump Seat" with
less than 63,000 original miles on it has had "technically" a
total of 3 owners in its 30 year pampered life, but really, I'm feel I'm the
2nd owner. The car is an all original
car from New Jersey. The original owners
had the car until 2013, gave it to their grandson who had it only a few months. He didn't want it and decided to sell it to a
gentleman that I bought it from, who only had it a couple months himself. He just bought it to flip and make a little
money I believe. When I bought it, it
was still registered in the grandson's name (the second owner).
Now, on to the description of this gorgeous vehicle. This Caprice Estate was never smoked in, was sparingly driven (as I said, it currently has less than 63,000 original miles), lovingly cared for and always garaged since new. Not only does it look virtually new, it drives like new! The original owner’s manual is still in the glove box. Included with the car is the original jack, jack instructions and a brand new full size spare tire. I have tons of receipts from the original owner validating the mileage which shows all the items done to the car over the years and very recently. More on that later.
This 1984 Caprice Estate is now being made available to some very
lucky bidder. The only reason I’m
selling it is because I have my eye on another classic car I found. If it doesn’t sell, I’m perfectly OK with
hanging on to it. I'm in no hurry to
sell it at all. I know what I have so
I'm not willing to "give it away".
This Caprice Estate was never hit and everything is in excellent
factory original condition, including the paint and the "wood" decals. The car honestly looks like a two year old
car. All the power windows and locks, lights,
turn signals, horn, cruise control, gauges, wipers (and squirters) and radio/cassette
tape deck are in perfect working order.
Remember that door buzzer/dinger when you inserted the key? Even THAT works perfectly! No electrical issues at all. The paint (which is 100% factory original,
chrome bumpers (virtually showroom new original condition) chrome trim around the
wheel wells, stainless trim and rubber trim are all in very good to excellent
condition. Roof rack is in like new
condition. No rust or pitting anywhere
on any chrome surfaces. This car handles
beautifully and holds the road nice and straight at 40 MPH or 70 MPH. No pulling at all and is very tight and
responsive. The car tracks straight when
driving and braking. The brakes work
beautifully with no issues at all. This Caprice
rides on a new set of white wall all season radial tires mounted on the
original factory wheels and original wire wheel covers to maintain its original
factory look. The exterior is
incredible! The ALL original cranberry
color still shines like new! It has a
few tiny (and I mean TINY) nicks/blemishes here and there but from 3 feet away,
they aren't noticeable. The floors and frame
as well as under the hood and cargo area and wheel wells are all solid and rust
free with no signs of rust or rot anywhere.
Same for all the door jams and under the doors (see pictures). NO RUST ANYWHERE!! There is no way this car was ever driven in
the winter. There is just some light
surface rust underneath the car, typical for the age of the car. Nothing at all
to worry about. All the glass is
perfect. No chips or cracks anywhere. All the doors open and close effortlessly,
just as new and all the door jams look new as well. NO RUST anywhere here.
But that’s just the beginning!
The stunning interior is absolutely breathtaking and 98% original! I had a new headliner and sun visors
professionally installed ($750) using OEM matching color and material. Looks awesome! Nothing has been modified or “cut up” in any
way. It looks exactly as it did back in
1984 and looks brand new. The
upholstery, door panels, seat backs, carpet, headliner (no sagging, fading or
rips), dash pad (no cracks or fading), chrome and stainless trim pieces are in
excellent to near new condition. This
interior is, for all intensive purposes, in brand new original condition. This Caprice Estate is equipped with the
original AM/FM stereo/cassette with front and rear speakers (which works
perfectly), power steering, power brakes, electric clock (which actually works and
keeps PERFECT time, cigar lighter (works great). The A/C blows cold with no issues. The heat works great with no issues.
This Caprice has the original 305 V8 engine hooked to its original
transmission with overdrive. Both
perform as new. Absolutely no knocking,
smoking or hesitation from the engine and the transmission shifts through the
gears like a new car. No slippage at
all. No leaks anywhere and no burning of
any oil. It’s very smooth with no issues. I brought this car to the Woodward Dream
Cruise last year and “cruised” in 2 hours straight of bumper to bumper traffic
just idling in 85 degree heat and the car didn’t miss a beat. No overheating and stayed in the “normal”
temperature range the whole time. This 1984 Caprice Estate Wagon was ordered with the following equipment. VIN# 2G1AN35H7E9201681

BID TO WIN!
This 1984 Caprice Estate has been lovingly cared for
since new. This is a vehicle that anyone
would be proud of and this car is wonderful to drive. It turns heads everywhere it goes. I get more looks for this car than any other
classic car I have owned and I have had quite a few. It brings back so many memories for so many
people. It took me YEARS to find this
car in this condition. They simply don't
exist anymore.
I see no reason why the winning bidder couldn’t fly in
and drive this vehicle home to anywhere in the country.
As everybody knows, nothing is perfect. The paint has a couple of small chips as I mentioned earlier (see pictures) here and there but are hardly noticeable, unless you get right up on the car. There is one small ding on the right rear quarter panel which you really have to look for as well as a tiny ding on the hood. Again, it’s hardly noticeable. The rear bumper fillers need replacing. I have already purchased the parts so they will be included with the sale of the car. The front door arm rests are starting to "lift" a bit as you can see in the pictures. Power antenna doesn't work anymore but radio and tape deck work perfectly as well as all the speakers.

Next Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs
Sun, 01 Dec 2013
The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
