1992 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon 5.7l on 2040-cars
Pleasant Hill, California, United States
|
This 1992 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon is an exceptionally clean, low mileage, original condition vehicle that has been meticulously maintained during my ownership. Being a California vehicle all it's life it has ZERO rust (note pictures). It is equipped with the tow package, A/C (blows ice cold), rear facing jump seat, dual opening tailgate (folds flat and opens sideways) and power everything (windows, dual power seats, cruise control, door locks, electric antenna, rear window opener, etc). It has been fueled with 91 Octane only and receives oil changes every 5,000 miles with Pennzoil Semi-synthetic. It rides smoothly, steers tight and straight down the road and brakes confidently with power front disc brakes. It's also extremely quiet and recently passed California smog with ease. The engine is the optional 5.7-liter 350 cu-in V8 that runs perfectly, burns no oil, and delivers a solid 16 mpg around town and around 23 mpg on the interstate (400 + mile range). The 4L60 4-speed automatic transmission also shifts perfectly and doesn't leak a drop. I am the second owner of this wagon purchasing it with 58,248 miles on the odometer. It now has 80,400 miles with the majority coming from interstate driving.
The interior of this wagon is in exceptional condition for it's age. I would rate it a solid 8.5 out of 10. Front and rear seats are extremely comfortable and still offer good support, as does the rear facing jump seat. The rear seats also fold flat allowing for cargo space that rivals most pickup trucks. For example a 4'x8' sheet of plywood lies flat. The exterior exhibits normal wear and tear for a older wagon with a few small parking lot dings, but is honestly in outstanding shape. The tires are Kumho Solus KS21 in size 235/70/15 and are also in good shape. Recent service items completed within the last 10,000 miles include: - Complete brake job front and rear, with full fluid flush, new front rotors and pads, new master cylinder and reservoir and new shoes. - Front wheel bearings repacked with new seals - New idler arm - Full transmission flush and service - New Monroe shocks front/rear - New water pump - New fuel pump w/ new fuel filter - Brand new radiator with built in oil/transmission cooler (tow package option) - New Thermostat - New Distributor Cap & Rotor - New air filter Mechanically, this Caprice Wagon needs nothing except a new driver and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it across country at a moments notice. The only items that do need addressing (if you choose) are the rear windows (the track grommets need replacing) and the rear defroster is inoperable. Aside from that you are looking at one of the cleanest GM B-body long-roof wagons out there. I encourage you to ask as many questions as you wish, as you will get honest answers I assure you. Shipping of this vehicle (if need be) and pick-up are the sole responsibility of the buyer, however I will help coordinate if necessary. I also encourage people to contact me so as to make an appointment to view this vehicle in person as you won't be disappointed. |

Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
