1972 Chevrolet Caprice Original Survivor Impala on 2040-cars
Omaha, Nebraska, United States
|
1972 Chevrolet Caprice 2 door hardtop. An above average condition, original car. It has a little under 63,000 actual miles. I bought it from the original owner’s family last winter. It is truly a small town Nebraska barn find. An original car, in hard to find condition. Has a clear Nebraska title.
The engine is a 400 big block 4 barrel. Known as the “402”. It has an automatic transmission. Air, tilt wheel and AM radio. As well as power steering and power brakes.
The car runs and drives beautifully. In about 1994, after the fathers’ death, the car was pulled from storage and had over $4000.00 spent on it to get it running. A new timing chain was installed as well as the following: Intake gasket, valve cover gaskets, oil pan gasket. All oil and fluids were drained and refilled. The transmission was serviced with new fluid, filter, gasket. The rear end (non posi), has new fluid and gasket. There are no oil leaks. The gas tank was replaced with another used one. Carb worked on and fuel filter replaced. Brakes checked and repaired as needed. That was in ’94. I went thru the fuel system again. I Cleaned the carb, pulled and redone the gas tank professionally, and put in a new fuel filter. Replaced the fuel pump and installed a new muffler.
The paint on the car is considered a 20 footer. Looks great, but upon close inspection there are chips and small dings. The worst chips are located on the front header panel and around the headlights. There are some paint imperfections not showing well in the pictures. Look closely. But...overall real nice car. The trunk floor and underbody are very solid. There is significant road rash from gravel roads down low behind the wheels. There is a rust area in front of the driver side rear wheel way down low. Very little to no rust everywhere else. Paint appears to be mostly original with some work done over the years, never wrecked!
The interior is the strong point. The seats, carpet, dash are all very nice. The door panels are perfect with the exception of the drivers door plastic that faded more than the passenger side. But still very nice. The dash pad is perfect. No cracking in the speaker area at all! Never smoked in and the lighter and ashtray are perfect. All gages work properly.
The AM radio does not work. The tires are old. The A/C doesn’t work however the compressor clutch is not locked up. A charge should do it. I don’t have any r12 refridgerent. The brakes are power but they feel manual. I think maybe the power booster or the plastic check valve need replaced. At night with the headlights on I smell a bit of burning?? Maybe just a fluke? Or a short in the headlight system. However the lights work just fine. Remember, this car sat a long time. There is no mice or rodent smell or damage anywhere that I can see. I’m sure the car needs things that I’m not aware of, or things you just might want to do on your own. This is a heck of a nice good running car but is sold “AS IS”. Its 42 years old. I maybe a bit critical in my description, but I feel you can never have too much information in dealing on the internet. My feedback is perfect and I describe all my items accurately.
Again the
car is sold as is. Please have funds available when bidding. No or low feedback
members must contact me BEFORE bidding, or I WILL CANCEL your bid. Bidders that
feel the need to retract bids, please go on to the next car. This ad is costing
me money. Shipping is up to the winning bidder. I will assist as much as I can.
Thanks and good luck! You should love this original survivor type car! Bernie

Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
