This is one of the last of it's kind available anywhere. This 1995 Chevrolet Caprice Classic 9C1 is an original, low-mileage car that is in good shape for it's age. It is finished in Medium Adriatic Blue Clearcoat Metallic, one of the most desirable colors available on the Caprice. If you are searching for the ultimate Chevrolet Police Package vehicle this may be the only opportunity you have to find one with this kind of mileage...

You are viewing an extremely low-mileage, always unmarked, loaded 1995 Chevrolet Caprice Classic with the coveted "9C1 Police Package". The 9C1 includes all of the heavy-duty and performance options, in addition to a lot of "police specific" items. This vehicle is highly sought after and they are known to last for hundreds of thousands of miles. The fuel economy is fantastic (26-30 mpg on the highway) and with all of the heavy-duty components, will outlast nearly any vehicle in the world if maintained properly. These were, perhaps, the most famous police cars ever manufactured and have been rated by many as the best police car ever built. They are blindingly fast, and capable of speeds in excess of 150 mph. When these cars were introduced, they changed the entire game.

Recently out of service from the State of Ohio, Department of Mental Health, where it was used very little it's entire time in service, with only 89,942 actual, documented miles on it. This car sat more than it was used, according to the State of Ohio. It was the only car that they still owned that was this old, and they had no idea it was even still in their fleet when it was turned in. This is a decent example of a very rare, hard to find car in the most "in-demand" color.

The original finish is in good shape and this vehicle has an absolutely spotless Carfax report. It has never been involved in any accidents and has never had any paintwork or damage repaired.

This car is far from perfect, so do NOT expect a new car...it is a nearly 20 year-old car that was just taken out of service last fall.

Recent work that was done on the car (within the last couple of hundred miles) includes; brand-new front brakes, new "Optispark" distributor, newly re-programmed computer, new fuel pump, fresh oil change, complete coolant system flush and re-fill, new brake master cylinder, new spark plugs, new spark plug wires, and new coolant temperature sending unit. The fuel gauge operates erratically and may have a loose ground, the A/C functions and is complete but does not blow very cold, and it does have a slight exhaust leak which is probably a muffler that will need replaced. There is wear on the driver's side carpet (as with most Caprices) but overall, the interior is pretty decent. These are the deficiencies we have noted, but as with any used car there may be other items that need attention that we are unaware of. The car runs and drives great, there are no "check engine" lights or otherwise on, and I have personally put a few hundred miles on it myself over the last couple of weeks. It runs cool, smooth and fast and the transmission shifts perfectly. Overall, a decent example of a hard to find car. It is NOT a show car, nor is it in "mint" or "perfect" condition, it is an original, unmolested survivor that should be preserved and driven, or restored to perfection if someone wants to someday...of course, enjoying it as it is would be what I would do for now.

This vehicle had a spotlight, which was removed when it was placed into service, and the hole was sealed (this could be replaced easily if you desire). It never had a light bar or decals installed anywhere. It has never been in regular police service. There is one hole drilled with an antenna mount on the rear 1/4 panel. I can place an antenna on the mount if the winning bidder so desires.

This unit includes all of the options you would expect on a 9C1 Caprice...power mirrors, power windows (with driver's window "express down" feature), rear window defogger, power locks, full body side moldings, factory AM/FM stereo, driver and passenger side airbags, cruise control, full-factory carpeting, Medium Blue bucket front seating with matching rear bench seat. These items, of course, are just the beginning of the list of equipment on this car.

It is finished in the factory Medium Adriatic Blue Clearcoat Metallic finish with Medium Blue interior. This is one of the most beautiful colors available on the Caprice.

All of the factory manuals and all of the documentation from the State of Ohio are included with the vehicle, and are in place in the glove box. 

The original, full size spare tire is in place in the trunk with the factory spare tire cover still present.

This unit is also equipped with, of course, the full "9C1" police package which includes the 5.7-liter LT1 (350 cubic-inch) H.O. V8 engine, 4-speed overdrive heavy-duty transmission, 3.08 rear axle ratio, Good Year Eagle RS-A 225-70VR-15 police-spec, ultra-high performance radials mounted on the factory, heavy-duty, 15" vented police wheels with factory bolt-on police center caps, dual exhaust, 4-wheel disc brakes, severe-duty suspension, heavy-duty cooling, heavy-duty frame, engine oil cooler, power steering fluid cooler, transmission low-gear blockout, certified police speedometer, silicone radiator and heater hoses, instrumentation light shut-off ("blackout") switch, and much, much more. 

For those of you who know Chevrolet police cars, you are probably already aware that the Caprice police sedans were the cars that the Impala SS's were based on. They were known to be better performing and have actually become harder to find as not many survived.

Caprices like this one are becoming nearly extinct, so here's your opportunity if you've been looking for one in a rare and desirable color combination with low mileage

These are the Caprices that aficionados lust after, and this is an unmolested example. It is very responsive, smooth-shifting and, of course, very fast. 

This is a factory, all Medium Adriatic Blue Metallic car, not a re-painted color change like you will see for sale elsewhere.

This unit is in good overall condition and has less than the normal wear and tear you would expect to find on a used police vehicle. This vehicle, as most used police vehicles do, however, will have imperfections...this typically includes; scratches, chips, nicks, dings, rust, etc....that being said, this car has no known major mechanical defects and it runs and drives good. Please, keep in mind, we strive to find the nicest used vehicles possible, but they are still used vehicles. 

It is a very nice driving, tight unit...not a beat-up police car. It has never been used for any type of normal police or patrol work. 

DON'T PASS THIS ONE UP, 9C1 CAPRICES ARE VERY, VERY HARD TO FIND AND I DOUBT YOU WILL SEE ANOTHER FOR SALE IN THE NEAR FUTURE WITH THIS LOW OF MILEAGE, IF AT ALL. 

This 1995 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1 will sell to the high bidder at the end of the auction, this is a NO RESERVE AUCTION. Please complete all inspections BEFORE bidding...if you win the auction, you own the vehicle. 

Because of increasing expenses in every regard, we have been forced to raise our fees by $50, this is the first time in ten years that we have done this, so hopefully you will understand. There will be a $175 documentation fee and a $15 title fee added to each sale, these will be the ONLY additional fees you will be responsible for, unless you reside in the state of Ohio, in which case you will need to pay the proper amount of sales tax, based on the current rate for the county in which you reside. Temporary 30-day plate and registration is also available for $18.50. We do not charge any additional fees and there are no hidden charges. Most sellers are charging double this amount currently. 

I welcome any and all questions you might have prior to bidding on this Caprice. I do reserve the right to end the auction early if the vehicle sells locally prior to the end of auction (please call if you like).

I am a law-enforcement officer as well and as such, work long hours so you are free to call me as late in the evening as you like. I can be reached anytime at (614) 893-3857. I will take calls 24/7 up until the end of the auction. 



Winning bidder agrees to forward a 25% partial payment (unless a lesser amount is agreed upon PRIOR to the end of the auction) at end of auction via direct bank wire transfer or by overnighted cashier's check, money order or certified funds. Balance will be due within seven days of end of auction or at time of pick up or delivery, whichever comes first. I will help in any way possible to arrange transportation. I can store the vehicle for up to 90 days, until pick up can be arranged, as long as it's paid for in full. 

I may be able to deliver this vehicle personally, depending on your location, at a reduced rate. 

I have been buying, selling and driving unique, specialty vehicles for over ten years now and take pride in offering only low-mileage vehicles that are not "run of the mill", beat-up cars and trucks. I specialize in the hard to obtain cars, SUV's and trucks, Dodge Hemi Charger and Ram 5.9 Cummins Diesel trucks, Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel trucks, Chevrolet Impala and Caprice 9C1 and 9C3 police vehicles, collectible and rare cars, trucks and vans. If there are any questions at all, again, please don't hesitate to call me at (614) 893-3857. I will answer all e-mails as quickly as possible. Thanks and good luck! 

Because of people who bid and do not contact me or pay, I am being forced to implicate a rule pertaining to low-feedback bidders. ANY BIDDER WHO BIDS, WITH A FEEDBACK OF 5 OR LESS, WILL HAVE THEIR BID RETRACTED IMMEDIATELY unless they contact me first, prior to bidding. I hope everyone understands, and I thank our hundreds of happy customers, but a few bad apples have spoiled the proverbial bunch. Thanks for understanding. 


Please remember, this is a used government vehicle and it is not new. It is, however, in better condition than most like vehicles you will see. As such, it will have flaws consistent with the miles and age of the vehicle, and with government use. That being said, it is in good shape and runs & looks good. It is not what you would typically expect, or what you will find elsewhere for sale. Please, if you want to come and look at it, do so BEFORE bidding...or call me, as always, at 614-893-3857 or e-mail me and I will answer any questions you may have. Thanks!

2017 Chevy Cruze Hatchback updated with utility and style

Mon, Jan 11 2016

Ford, Hyundai, Kia, and Scion all have compact hatches on offer, and now Chevrolet joins the fray with the 2017 Cruze Hatchback. Based on the second-generation Cruze, the new body style offers an economical way of scoring a total of 42 cubic feet of cargo space without upgrading to a crossover. Like the sedan, the new hatch comes to market with a turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder good for 153 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. That's it – no naturally aspirated engines here. That engine will be paired with either a six-speed manual or a HydraMatic six-speed auto. Fuel economy should be just as impressive as the sedan, projected to hit 40 miles per gallon on the highway. While looks are subjective, we think that the Cruze Hatchback may be sharper-looking than the sedan. The long, pointy nose looks more balanced with the long roof. The rear end looks good, but that rear aperture is awfully tiny and sits above a high rear bumper – not ideal for a vehicle that consumers will buy because of its versatility. We've got a small gallery from the media scrum at the Cruze Hatchback's Detroit debut above, as well as full video of the press conference with live reaction below. Have a look. Chevrolet Introduces 2017 Cruze Hatch HERE'S THE STORY Ahead of its debut at the North American International Auto Show, Chevrolet today introduced the 2017 Cruze Hatchback. Developed with all the technologies and dynamic driving attributes of the all-new 2016 Cruze sedan, the new hatch adds a functional and sporty choice for customers. It joins Colorado and Trax as the latest Chevrolets to push into new segments. PRODUCT DETAILS The Cruze Hatch has the same, class-leading 106.3-inch (2,700 mm) wheelbase as sedan models, but features a unique roof and rear-end structure – including wraparound taillamps and an integrated spoiler at the top of the liftgate. It opens to offer 18.5 cubic feet (524 liters) of cargo space behind the rear seat. With the rear seat folded, cargo space expands to 42 cubic feet (1,189 liters). ON SALE Fall 2016 QUOTABLE "With 9 percent market growth in small hatchbacks last year, it's the perfect time to bring the Cruze Hatch to America," said Alan Batey, president, General Motors North America and Global Chevrolet.

Next Chevrolet Malibu to have 'groundbreaking,' 'passionate' design

Mon, Dec 29 2014

In our First Drive of the Chevrolet Malibu after its redesign in 2013 we wrote, "Chevy has quickly worked up a host of changes for its ever-important midsize sedan, and will be launching this 'there, we fixed it' 2014 Malibu like it's an all-new product." Still, no one cared. The Malibu has been mentioned in eight posts this year, all but two of them dealt with recalls, and one of those two was about a 2011 Malibu university science project. It came up in precisely zero posts from November 2013 to March 2014. That's why, according to a report in Automotive News, Chevrolet honchos are "hustling" to have a new Malibu ready in a year. Mark Reuss, General Motors' head of global product development, said it will have "groundbreaking design" and "groundbreaking technology," and asked investors who were showed a picture of it, "When is the last time you saw a [midsize] car this distinctive and this dramatic from General Motors?" Doubling down on the bullishness, Reuss said, "We've got our act together here on the midsize-car segment." Then, throwing every last chip on the pile, global design head Ed Welburn said the next Malibu's design will "make a significant statement" with "a very passionate design." Based on the number of comments Malibu posts get, we figure a fair few number of you would love for this to be the case; yet this is a lot of braggadocio to slather on a car that probably hasn't made "a significant statement" since Elton John had a number one record with Honky Chateau. That was 1972, if you're trying to remember. No matter the looks, the AN report says the new 'Bu will make a profit statement, selling for more money while costing less to produce. Alongside the Cruze, GM figures the pair will bring in an extra $800 million in variable profit in 2016. Which, in case it ends up being another 'butterface,' isn't bad for a silver lining.

Callaway, Lingenfelter boost Corvette Z06 way beyond 700 hp

Tue, Jul 28 2015

With 650 horsepower and just as much torque on tap, few would accuse the latest Corvette Z06 of being down on power. But for those who'll always demand more, two leading Corvette tuners have just announced new tuning packages for the Z06 to boost Chevy's flagship well beyond 700 horsepower. The more powerful of the two comes from Callaway Cars, which has added a larger supercharger, a triple-action intercooler, and more to increase output to a massive 757 horsepower and 777 pound-feet of torque. The result, according to Callaway, is a 0-60 time quoted at 2.8 seconds and a quarter-mile run in 10.5. The package also includes a reshaped hood, all manner of trim upgrades, and a three-year warranty, and will set you back nearly $17k on top of the cost of donor vehicle that currently lists for $79,000. In what could only come second relative to Callaway's kit, Lingenfelter Performance Engineering has also released a Stage 1 package for the Z06. The kit includes a new dry sump damper, upgraded supercharger pulley and drive belt, and more – all of which Lingenfelter says will boost the Vette's output up to 720 hp and 730 lb-ft. Revised performance figures weren't released, but despite the 37-horse, 47 lb-ft deficit, we doubt it'd trail Callaway's by much. But both would likely leave the stock Z06 in their dust, and you can read more about them in the press releases below. Related Video: Callaway Cars Releases Their Most Powerful Corvette - 757 bhp / 777 lb-ft - Z06-based Corvette upgrade boasts 32% larger supercharger, triple intercoolers, and consistent power - lap after lap The Numbers - Callaway Cars today announced power numbers and performance for the flagship model in their performance car lineup. Equipped with Callaway's GenThree Supercharger, the Corvette Z06 now produces 757 bhp @ 6,200 rpm and 777 lb-ft @ 4,500 rpm (SAE). A launch to 60 mph is now achieved in 2.8 seconds, and a quarter-mile in 10.5 seconds at 131 mph. Why Go Big, When You Can Go Bigger? - Size Matters. To reach that power (which is up from 650 bhp / 650 lb-ft) the supercharger itself needed to be bigger since the output of a positive displacement supercharger is proportionate to its size. The Callaway GenThree supercharger is 32% larger in displacement (2300cc vs 1740cc). Cooling - Callaway engineers recognize that a key contributor to maximizing power is reduction of inlet air temperature associated with forced induction.
