1989 9c1 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Sedan 4-door 5.7l Tbi / 700r4 A/t Loaded on 2040-cars
United States
For Sale: 1989 Chevrolet Caprice Classic, 9c1 packaged, max-optioned. COMPLETELY RUST FREE IN ORIGINAL FACTORY CONDITION. Description: This is the last of the great Caprices. It has the complete 9c1 package, including the full-size spare, mounted in the trunk, jack and lug wrench. It has the green silicone hoses, over-sized radiator, transmission cooler, over-sized sway bars, front and rear, HD shocks, 15" 5 x 5 steel wheels, 1/2T suspension, heater by-pass valve, R-12 A/C, Tilt, Power Door Locks, Power Windows--everything this car could come with, it has. This car was built in San Antonio, Texas and delivered to the State of California in 1989. It was a detective's car. It has never had spot lights, radio antennas, holes drilled in the dash, or anything else maligning the beautiful, perfectly straight RUST FREE body. I bought the car three years ago from a gentleman in Van Nuys, CA. He had purchased the car from a local school district at auction. His only competition in the bidding was from the principal who had been assigned the car to use in his duties. The car apparently spent most of it's life in a police garage, seldom used and eventually transferred to the Los Angeles County School district. The principal claimed that it was the nicest car he'd ever had, and never had one problem with the car. I bought it sight un-seen and drove it back to Texas, where it has served me well, and continues to serve me as my daily driver. Condition: There is NOT ONE thing wrong with this car. I drive it to work every day. I am selling this caprice because it is a luxury to own it and my work truck. I plan on using the money from the sale of this beautiful car to pay off some of my bills and add on to our home. The 9c1 package is ALL ORIGINAL and AMAZING! All the physical gauges work perfectly. All the "idiot" lights work perfectly. The 350 TBI has not had one thing done to it except regular oil, filter and water changes. It starts up, the first time, every time, hot or cold outside, the car is warm or cool within minutes as dictated by the driver. The car has speed-rated 15" tires which are less than a year old. The power windows all work, at the driver's control panel and on each door. The 125 mph speedo works, all the way to 123 mph. The car does need paint. The original black paint is still on the lower half of the car. Silver with a red pin-stripe was added by the principal some time in the mid-90's. He also added the door-ding rubber trim. This was not original to the car. This is not a repaint. The black is the original patina as the door jam photo clearly shows. The rear deck lid was replaced by myself. I did this because there were two pin-hole rust spots on the forward top corners of the original deck lid. I have never seen spots like this on any Caprice I've owned before, and I have owned many. This is the finest caprice I have ever owned. The car will come with all the bumper filler hardware and a COMPLETE, BRAND NEW SET OF BUMPER FILLER pieces in the boxes, FRONT & REAR! New or Recent: 15" speed-rated tires, radiator flush, oil filter and oil, serpentine belt, Brakes, front and rear. GET IN AND DRIVE IT ANYWHERE, DRIVE IT ALL THE WAY TO ALASKA IF YOU WANT. YOU WILL NOT NEED TO DO ANYTHING TO THIS BEAUTIFUL, ORIGINAL 9c1 Caprice! Extras: There have been some additions to the car. I have had the transmission cross-member "frenched" and professionally welded to accommodate a professionally installed dual exhaust system, with cats and resonators in their stock locations. The exhaust system on the car utilizes all the original mounts, and still retains the single oxygen sensor. It does not sag down, but is tucked up neatly, completely, under the entire undercarriage. It also has a set of HD air shocks on the rear and a class III receiver hitch with 7 and 5-plug electric trailer hook ups. Also installed is a trailer brake modulator. The car is more than capable of towing 4,000 lbs with a 400 lb tongue weight. I have also had a CD / USB Premiere Stereo System installed. I have the original AM/FM cassette, mounting plate and face plate that will go with the car. I have also up-graded the speakers under the dash and in the rear header panel. You can not tell because I used all the factory mounts for the new speakers. NOTHING was cut to do this, anywhere, and the original wiring harness was NOT cut. The components are all "plug and play," utilizing the original wiring harness cannon plug. I have also added an LS Brougham trunk liner and matting to keep the noise to a minimum. I also removed the original 9c1 seats, (front bench), and installed the LS Brougham velour blue interior you see in the pictures. I have the original 9c1 seats, front and rear, and they will go with the car. They are the 9c1 woven tweed pattern. This is an ORIGINAL Texas car, that spent it's service life in California. There is NO RUST on this beautiful car. This is as solid as they come; you will not find a more solid, more beautifully original JET Black 9c1 anywhere in this kind of condition. The title is IN MY NAME, titled in the state of Texas, currently registered and insured in my name through August of 2016 on my disabled Veteran's Plates. You can write your own bill of sale for your state and we can notarize it together. I will turn the title over to you once the car has been paid for in FULL. The car comes with two complete sets of keys, and all the extras that have been aforementioned. You can fly into Killeen Airport, in Killeen, Texas and I will pick you up in the car. You can drive it ANYWHERE. It will come with a full tank of gas and a fresh oil and filter change, with a complete lube on the front end and drive train. YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED. This car is only being sold to finance an addition to our home and consolidate some bills. The offer status is set to accept reasonable offers close to my asking price; or you can buy it through Pay Pal. The car is NOT for sale locally. I will sell it for cash, in person. VOICE call or TEXT (254) 368-7399 for additional information. I am retired Army. I am a welder now as a civilian. If I don't answer, I will get back to you as soon as possible. |

Pony-car sales war: Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger [UPDATE]
Fri, Jul 3 2015Update: An earlier version of this story misstated the 2015 Mustang's weight when compared with previous models. Additionally, we have added comments from Chevrolet in the text. The Ford Mustang has blown past the Chevy Camaro as America's best-selling pony car, and in June, it wasn't even close. The 'Stang outsold the Camaro 11,719 to 8,611 cars. The Camaro remained ahead of the Dodge Challenger, which sold 6,845 units. Even though the Camaro did post an 11.5-percent sales improvement in June, the competition is arguably stronger than at anytime since the 1970s muscle-car era. The Mustang's sales leapt a whopping 53.6 percent, while the Challenger saw a gain of 56 percent. Several factors are weighing down Camaro sales, including its lame duck status. Chevy is launching a new generation of the Camaro this year that's more than 200 pounds lighter, offers a new turbo four-cylinder engine option, and has a nicer interior than the outgoing model. Put simply: wait a few months and you can get a better car. It's also unlikely Chevy will jack up the price much, as it's historically kept the Camaro within reach of everyday enthusiasts. While Chevy fans wait in anticipation for their new sports car, Ford and Dodge have downshifted. The new Mustang, which went on sale last year, is faster and more sophisticated than its predecessor. It also offers a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder, which Ford has credited for the Mustang's recent uptick and makes up 36 percent of the car's sales, Ford analyst Erich Merkle said. View 17 Photos June's performance allowed the Mustang to widen its sales gap with the Camaro this year. Through the first five months, Ford sold 68,290 Mustangs, a 54.4-percent increased compared with 2014. Chevy sold 42,593 Camaros, an 8.7-percent decrease. The Challenger – long the No. 3 pony car in sales volume – has seen its sales surge 41 percent this year to 37,011 units. Spokesman Monte Doran said Chevy expected that 2015 would be a "relatively soft year" for the Camaro. "Mustang is taking advantage of years' worth of pent-up demand for an independent rear suspension," he said. "When Camaro introduced an IRS, in 2009, it helped make us the best-selling performance car in America.
