1995 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Sedan 4-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Virginia Beach, Virginia, United States
|
For sale: 1995 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1 Police package. I have owned this car for about 9 years and it was my college and work commuter car. I've kept it maintained with regular oil changes and other maintenance. On the negative side, it will need some TLC to be a daily driver, please read the description. It would be a great project to tinker with, or make a race/derby car out of. But, if you have the time and space to work on it, I think it would be an easy one to make a nice driver out of. Positives are the interior is in OK shape for a 20 year old ex-police car. The drivers door panel was a junkyard replacement that was dyed to match. The power windows, locks, radio, remote trunk release all work. The carpet is aftermarket replacement, but it does the job. The steering wheel is a NOS GM replacement and is in excellent shape. These car's are notorious for having pieces of foam missing and are hard to find in good shape. The Unity Spotlight works fine and is intact. Parts replaced( I have most if not all receipts for) : The front springs, upper and lower control arms with the police/taxi specific 5/8'' ball joints. These were purchased new from GM before the parts were discontinued. Instrument cluster was rebuilt by SPECMO(where GM dealers send clusters and radio). The digital display is bright and the gauges all work. Brake system has always been maintained, and the wheel bearings were recently repacked.The car stops just fine with good pedal feel. The starter was replaced with a NAPA lifetime guarantee re-man. cranks fine. I replaced the Opti-Spark cap/rotor and the spark plug wires last year. Starts up and runs just fine, with some driving and maybe a new set of plugs it would run better I'm sure. Clean Michigan title. If you would like any additional information, please let me know, I will do my best to provide it to you. Thanks for looking! |

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
