Up until two weeks ago when I bought an SUV, this was my daily driver for 4 YEARS. I no longer need it, so it's your chance to own it! You are bidding on a solid, smooth running and driving car that you can depend on. Originally purchased in 2009, it has been very well maintained. We installed the replacement engine ourselves in 2010. Nothing was overlooked, and the job was done right the first time. The transmission was replaced with a remanufactured (better than rebuilt) unit the same year. There is over $2,500 invested in the engine and transmission replacement alone. Not to mention 100% NEW AIR CONDITIONING *EVERYTHING* was replaced ($1,200 in A/C parts). Condenser, evaporator, orifice tube, accumulator/drier, all seals, NOS Harrison compressor charged with R-134a and properly lubricated with PAG oil, blower motor resistor, mode door vacuum switch, and more) All shocks were replaced, including rear adjustable air suspension.
5.7L 350 Fuel-injected V8 - 4L60 (700R4) Automatic Transmission - ABS brakes - Factory specs (200+ horsepower, 300+ ft-lbs torque, 3.23 rear axle ratio)
Only 20,000 miles on new transmission! (Installed 2010)
Only 80,000 miles on 5.7L engine! (Installed 2010) This engine came from an all original 1990 Chevy Suburban V2500 with 60,000 original miles. I was able to hear it run before buying it from the owner. He just got back from a cross-country trip from California to Pennsylvania with THIS TRUCK and was embarking on a major project to convert it to diesel power. He had a 6.2L Diesel at the ready to install after he took this engine out. I cannot stress enough that this is an excellent motor. It runs very smooth, quiet, and moves this wagon around with ease. For those of you not familiar with these engines, they came in 2 bolt and 4 bolt main bearing versions. Being a truck motor, this is the heavy duty, 4 bolt main. In short, it's the upgraded version.
Good tires! Matching set of Goodyear Wrangler SR-A's with a nice amount of tread left! (Purchased and installed in 2011)
Completely up to date on all maintenance, including these recent upgrades:
Alternator (2013), power steering pump (2010), water pump (2010), radiator (2010), fan clutch (2012).
Fresh tune-up! Oxygen sensor, throttle position sensor, 8mm wires, spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor, PCV valve, idle speed and timing verified at specification. (2013)
Preventative maintenance done Fall 2010. I stress PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE because this engine ran perfectly to begin with, but I felt more comfortable investing a little extra time to replace these crucial internal components while the engine was accessible on a stand instead of waiting for the inevitable when it's in the vehicle. This is what I mean by "Done right the first time." New motor mounts, new transmission mount, Intake manifold gasket set, Throttle body gasket set, Valve cover gaskets, Oil Pan gasket, Timing Cover gaskets, Melling High Volume oil pump w/ new sump and screen, New timing set (chain, cam gear, and crank gear), thermostat and lifetime gasket, oil pressure switch, vacuum hoses, etc.
100% NEW AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM as of Summer 2012 (this alone costed $1,200.00)
New front end work all done as of April 2013 (Brakes, calipers, rotors, wheel bearings, seals, idler arm, and alignment)
New front sway bar bushings and end link assemblies, LF ABS brake sensor. (Summer 2011)
All new shocks, rear brakes, new parking brake cables. (Summer 2012)
New fuel pump and sending unit (Fall 2012).
Over $6,000 invested. This car is absolutely worth the money. It was used as my daily driver for the past 4 years, and I am selling since I purchased an SUV a few weeks ago. I no longer need this car and can certainly use the money it will bring. In turn, you will get a practically turn-key Caprice wagon that needs no major repairs. Of course, it's not a brand new car and it's always going to need a few little things here and there along with regular maintenance.
- For example, I removed a small section of carpeting on the front passenger's side when my old heater core sprung a leak. The antifreeze soaked the carpet underneath and there was no way to get it completely clean. So, the best thing to do was to quickly remove the section in order to stop it from wicking throughout the entire carpet. I have a large, heavy rubber mat that fits in place of the missing carpet.
- The radio works, but the cassette player does not.
- Dash pad has two hairline cracks in it that just developed over this past winter. (I've heard it's a common issue with these)
- Custom exhaust work was done in Spring 2011 for a true dual setup. The left (driver's) side recently developed a slight exhaust leak.
That's it! If you're looking for a brand new car, you've come to the wrong place. This isn't a brand new car, but then again, there hasn't been a brand new Chevy Caprice wagon since 1996! An overwhelming majority of these wagons have been beat into the ground, neglected, and driven until they wind up rusting out in someone's backyard or the junkyard. THIS IS NOT A RUSTBUCKET. IT IS THE REAL DEAL. EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED.
This is the closest you're going to come to buying one of these wagons that runs and drives well, extra clean, has all the major work ALREADY DONE, and LEAST LIKELY TO GIVE YOU ANY PROBLEMS FOR A VERY LONG TIME, SO LONG AS YOU KEEP UP ON THE MAINTENANCE. A new transmission, original replacement GM engine, 100% new A/C, along with the above description are key attributes that SET THIS WAGON APART FROM THE REST OF THEM. Don't let the original odometer reading of 210,000 miles discourage you. This wagon is in better condition than any of your average Roadmaster, Caprice, or Custom Cruiser models, LT-1 or not, with half the amount of miles on them as compared to mine!
I repeat, this is a private sale and you'll be dealing directly with me the entire time. I'm not a dealer, selling this car for someone else, or anything of that sort at all. I stand behind each and every word, picture, and term of this sale with full intentions to sell to the highest bidder. I HAVE THE CLEAR, PA TITLE IN MY HANDS. Car will not be released and Ownership will not be transferred until the balance is paid in full and clears my account. If you intend to have this car shipped to you, please notify your desired shipping company of my ZIP code (19116) for the best estimate possible. You can also fly in and drive it home. If you plan on having it towed, it must be done using a flatbed tow truck. These cars are too large and too heavy (4,500 lbs.) to risk using any other system except a flat bed. You are responsible for all shipping, title, registration, insurance, and any other expenses incurred with the sale.
I will be available to answer any questions you have during the auction. If you are unsure of ANYTHING, please call me before bidding. Per eBay policy, your bid enters you into a legally binding agreement with eBay, me, and you. A winning bidder who does not agree to carry out their part of the transaction forfeits their deposit in full. See payment instructions for deposit timeframe and other information.
Call me for specific questions. 484-483-3310
Transaction to be completed in cash, in person. If that is not possible, you may only send a bank check from a major U.S. bank. If you bring a check, you will not get the car released in your name unless the funds clear my bank. Deposit must be submitted as soon as possible after auction ends. Buyer responsible for all shipping and pick-up arrangements.
On Jul-28-13 at 21:37:07 PDT, seller added the following information:30 minutes left, so place your bid! If you happen to bid the same amount as another person, the earlier bid does take priority per eBay policy. It really does matter to bid early, so don't let this wagon slip away. I will be logged on until the auction expires for any last minute questions.

10 electric cars we’re excited are coming soon
Thu, Sep 22 2022If you were considering buying an electric vehicle a couple years ago, we wouldn't fault you for thinking your options were limited, both in terms of quantity and quality. You just might not have been able to find an electric car that would suit your needs, lifestyle or budget. With the newest generation of EVs that have launched in the past year or two, your options have changed — and improved — dramatically. If you still don't see an EV you like, just wait a little while longer. It won't take long. There are a whole lot more on the horizon, and the problem may soon be in narrowing down your options. To give you an example, here are 10 electric vehicles we're excited about that you'll be able to buy very soon, from GM, from Germany, from Japan and more. Some of these will be available by the end of the year, and all are expected to launch by the end of 2023. The Chevy trio: 2024 Blazer EV, Equinox EV and Silverado EV GM is stepping into the future with strong footing. Following high-end electric launches from GMC (Hummer EV) and Cadillac (Lyriq), Chevrolet is bringing three electric vehicles with familiar nameplates. The 2024 Chevy Blazer EV (above left) will offer a number of versions, starting with the 2LT and RS trims in the summer of 2023, followed by the 557-horsepower SS in the fall and the base 1LT in early 2024. The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV (above right) will go on sale in fall 2023 as a limited-edition model, with volume sales ramping up in 2024, with a base cost of “around $30,000.” For those who prefer a bed to a liftgate, the 2024 Chevy Silverado EV is an electric pickup that looks more like the old Chevy Avalanche than the current Silverado. The WT (work truck) trim launches in fall 2023, while the 664-horsepower RST will follow in 2024. Read more: 5 new electric car companies coming in 2023 and beyond 2023 BMW i7 BMW revealed the all-electric 2023 i7 luxury sedan alongside the gas-powered 7 Series. It should go on sale before the end of 2022. The i7 xDrive60 will be the only variant, with its two motors providing a total of 536 horsepower and 549 pound-feet of torque, and its battery expected to offer a range of about 300 miles. Just like its internal combustion counterpart, this full-size sedan wonÂ’t come cheap, with the i7 starting at $120,295. 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 Following the Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60, the 2023 Hyundai Ioniq 6 will be the fourth car using Hyundai GroupÂ’s E-GMP electric car architecture.
Performance cars overpower the Detroit Auto Show
Tue, Jan 13 2015At precisely the stroke of noon on Monday, the 2016 Acura NSX rolled on stage at the Detroit Auto Show amid plumes of smoke and dancing lights. The sounds of the powerful engine revving soared to the rafters. It was the second coming of Acura's iconic sports car, and the reveal had all of the expected trappings. Afterwards, champagne corks popped and the bubbly flowed. It was noon in Detroit, but for the green-car movement, it seemed like the clock had struck midnight. That's an exaggeration, but performance was the overwhelming theme of North America's most important show. Ford – which has helped lead the way in smaller displacement engines and early adoption of hybrid powertrains – had more than 1,500 horsepower on stage one point after it revealed the GT concept, the new F-150 Raptor and the Shelby Mustang GT350R. The NSX is technically a hybrid (it has three electric motors), but with 550-plus hp, there's no doubt this Acura was bred on the track. The theme continued throughout the show at nearly every stand. Alfa Romeo showed off the 4C Spider, which is the open-air version of a car that purports to be the spiritual successor of the high-performance 33 Stradale from 1967. On Tuesday, Cadillac is scheduled to reveal the 640-hp CTS-V with the V8 transplanted from the Corvette Z06, and the Lexus was expected to roll out its own V8-powered beast, the 467-hp GS F. For enthusiasts – especially enthusiasts with money – these are halcyon days. But make no mistake, all of this power has a purpose. Ford product chief Raj Nair said the Blue Oval uses high performance cars to develop technologies, like aerodynamics and materials, which are then shared across its lineup. "It's another proof point about how serious we are in developing innovation through performance," he said. Ford, which is rolling out at least 12 performance cars by 2020, said the sporty cars attract younger and more influential buyers to its fold, which can help burnish its image beyond adding sales volume. Toyota is taking a similar approach, senior vice president Bob Carter said, noting the Lexus RC coupe draws people into showrooms and gets them excited about the brand, even if they don't end up buying one. "They provide an aspiration and a halo that provides the attention that gets you noticed in a cluttered market," he said.
GM recalling 250,000 SUVs over door electronics
Mon, 20 Aug 2012After a door-fire investigation that dates back to February, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially announced a recall today that affects around 250,000 General Motors SUVs for a faulty driver's door module. The recall applies to the Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, Isuzu Ascender and Saab 9-7X from the 2006 and 2007 model years, as well as the 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL for vehicles sold and/or registered in the Snow Belt.
Road salt use in these midwestern and northern states can lead to corrosion of the driver's door module on these GMT360 and GMT370 vehicles, which allows water to come in contact with the circuit board. If shorted out, the vehicle's power door locks and power windows will not work, and could possibly lead to overheating and, in some circumstances, a fire. No official word on how many total vehicles caught on fire, but back in June, 28 fires had been reported to the government agency. A fix for the problem is still being worked out, but all affected vehicle owners will be notified by GM.
