1968 Caprice Coupe, 96k, So Cal Black Plate Car. Zero Rust! Stored 23 Yrs. on 2040-cars
Vancouver, Washington, United States
| I have a nice original survivor car from southern California. The car had been garaged since the fall of 1967 in the same garage for 45 years, one family owner. In 1990 the car was stored in that in that same garage til 2013 When I bought it. Between 1990 and 2002 the car had only been fired up and driven short distances to keep things lubed up... it only aquired 480 miles in that time frame.  1968 Chevy Caprice Coupe. 96,600 original miles. 275HP 327, TH400, Power steering, RARE power disc brakes, power windows, seat, trunk, working air conditioning, and cruise control, it has the special lighting group, and a AM/FM Multiplex Radio with front and rear speakers. As with most cars that sit, it does present a few challenges, so I have replaced, the oil pressure switch, waterpump, heater hoses, belts, rebuilt the carb, tuned it, serviced the transmission and rear end, replaced, master cylinder, front calipers, front brakes (I have an extra NEW set btw, they are hard to find) rebuilt the rear wheel cylinders and replaced the rear brake shoes, replaced the shocks with monroe gas units, had an alignment, added a larger diameter front and rear sway bar, replaced the rear coild springs to get rid of the sag that they all have, I replaced the tires with 5 new P225/7015 Cooper Cobra tires. and added 2.5" dual exhaust from exhaust manifolds back with flow master mufflers. It still has all the T-3 headlights. Everything works as it should with the exception of the clock, and the radio. The radio turns on but cant get it to tune in. I Drove it back from Southern California to Washington state with no issues and have put nearly 11000 miles on it since August traveling around to car shows ect......Its a turn key car and draws a lot of attention.   Fly in and drive it home.   I have the original hubcaps, owners manual, window sticker, AM/FM Multiplex radio user instructions, keys, Black cali plates, and the factory gas cap was wrapped in a towel in the trunk.The large plastic front and rear floor mats from the 60s are still in the car as well and has protected the carpet nicely. NOTE: I DO HAVE THE CAR LISTED LOCALLY...I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO PULL AD AT ANYTIME. If you have any questions about the car, you can email, text me or call directly @ 509-294-4571, Im not sure how much longer my phone will be turned on, so if you have questions,  the sooner the better... This is what hagerty values the base 68 caprice at... not including the rare options... |

Franchitti, Kanaan, and Dixon prank young IndyCar driver
Fri, May 22 2015The 20-year-old Sage Karam is a rising star in racing after scoring the 2013 Indy Lights Championship and taking ninth place in the 2014 Indianapolis 500. He's now competing for Chip Ganasi Racing, one of the top teams in the IndyCar Series, and counts this year's pole sitter Scott Dixon and former winner Tony Kanaan as teammates. Of course, being so young and a new member of the squad, some lighthearted hazing is to be expected. Dixon, Kanaan, and three-time Indy 500 winner Dario Franchitti decided to play a little prank on Karam. While ostensibly detailing his Chevrolet Camaro, the three joking racecar drivers turned it into the Karamo. Check out the video above to see exactly what that means. After some scary crashes going into this year's event, it's refreshing to watch some cheery things happening at Indy.
Sunday Drive: Taking a gaze into the automotive crystal ball
Sun, Oct 22 2017Mankind has long been fascinated by the future. So it makes sense that this past week's top stories were all about cars, trucks, and SUVs that won't be hitting the market until the 2019 model year. And right at the top of the list is the Ram 1500. We've come to know Ram as the truck maker that styles its pickups with cues cribbed from big rigs, but that look has slowly evolved over time into something uniquely its own. The next Ram 1500 continues this trend, with a newly refined look that we can't wait to see in person. Up next is the 2019 Chevy Silverado. Pickup trucks have been, continue to be, and will remain the best-selling vehicles in America. And General Motors is a leader in the field, with two distinct offerings with which to entice buyers, one from the bread-and-butter Chevrolet brand and one wearing the slightly more upscale GMC badge. The Chevy looks to get LED lighting elements for 2019, which ought to keep the truck from looking dated when compared to the Ford F-150 and the previously mentioned Ram 1500. From there we move past pickup trucks and into SUVs and sedans. The 2019 Jeep Cherokee looks to get toned down a bit with its next refresh, and the '19 BMW 3 Series continues its slow evolutionary journey at the top of its aspirational sales pedestal. Finally, spy shots give way to official production reveals for the 2019 Audi A7 and Polestar 1. This pair of European luxury cars won't compete with one another – one is a rakish hatchback and the other a sports coupe – any further than for the eyeballs of our readers, but both proved popular enough to merit inclusion in our weekly roundup. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2019 Ram 1500 spotted without the classic crosshairs 2019 Chevy Silverado spied with new LED accents 2019 Jeep Cherokee reveals a much more normal face 2019 BMW 3 Series spy shots reveal production lights, new interior details 2019 Audi A7 revealed: More torque, refined styling Polestar 1 First Look | The 600 horsepower hybrid Scandinavian Green Audi BMW Chevrolet Jeep RAM Volvo Truck Hatchback SUV Future Vehicles Hybrid Luxury Performance Sedan sunday drive polestar 1
Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
