WOW - ok I want to make a deal here, I've had this listed on here 3 times already and over 1000 hits and a couple dozen watcher each time
BUT Zero offers....   not sure what your not liking about this....

If you came searching for this, you know its the last full-size chevy convertible ever made - and restoring one is getting harder and harder as almost all 2/4door wagons went to demos and are now crushed and parts are hard to come by.

This is the prefect starting point if you want to turn it into a lowrider, it needs nothing and is complete - I've seen parts cars sell in the 5-8k range and need a total restore. 

SHIPPING - yes I'm in Canada (about 8 hours north of Great Falls MT) and yes this will need to be exported/imported if you are a USA buyer, I know a broker that will make this painless and its no different then buying from anywhere else and getting it shipped. Depending on the final price I may be willing to chip in to this cost.

Oh and you might be thinking Canada = rust...  well we are in the prairies and don't have all that salt you see from cars down east, plus with the snow this car has been keep inside durring the winter season

Fell free to call to chat more about it (normal daylight hours... )   1-780-951- ONE SIX FOUR THREE    christopher
Will NOT take phone offers - please use the ebay button for offers this way I know your for real.


More pictures @   (you have to copy and paste the links)   even videos of it running !!!
and then I took more here
Trunk Untitled Untitled Untitled

Acquired the car in 1994 with somewhere around 30,000 miles and was all-original but had some rust issues from sitting.

Doors and Rear quarters where replaced with new, the inner rear wheel wells and front fenders came from rust free AZ car.
Motor and Interior where never touch that’s the way it came and has survived.

While doing all the work, came across a complete square bucket setup from a 76 caprice, which I think, looks much better.
The original color was yellow – it was repainted GM champagne from a 96 olds aurora
The top was replaced about 5 years ago due to some kids breaking the rear glass and the only way to replace it was a new top.

The car officially needs nothing, gas and go…. But as you can see from the pictures its no trailer queen – its also far from a bucket of junk, its and older restoration and depending on how picky you are it could use new paint, front seats are cracked a complete fluid flush and maybe tires soon. But is complete and I don’t think you can build one from scratch for this price.

Flaws that I know about – the rear flex marks on the rear deck are cracking and the paint is starting to crack away. Front pass fender has a blister that looks like rust, but its been there since shortly after it was painted and hasn’t gotten any worst over the year, I can’t say for sure its not rust my guess was something wasn’t prep’d be for painting in that one spot. Some of the clear is starting to come off need the front header panel. The gold trim on pot metal was done by a clear gold powder coat and does have some flaws if you get up close. One caprice emblem is missing, have looks high and low for one with no luck. The power top works but you need to stop it half way and tuck in the window; I think it just needs a good lube. Also the power windows could use a tweaking as you need to adjust (by hand) the rear ones to seat nice to the top. Also it almost time for new door seals as they are starting to flake apart.

Not only is it fully loaded – it has every option but the 454 – it has the rare gauge pack, power sear, rear defogger, power trunk, contortion a/c among the regular stuff you expect power windows, door locks, cruise, tilt wheel, bumper guards and power top. The wire wheels in some pictures are not included they where stolen awhile back – it just has caprice covers from a early 80’s
