I am the second owner.
This car has NOT , repeat NOT....been in a collision or hit in any way.
It was bumped into something in the front corner by the previous owner at very low speeds. You can see the damage in the pics.
This is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL, starting, running and driving Caprice.
I took great care of it for the three years that I owned it and worked on making it more reliable as well as smooth and quiet.
**I PUT COUNTLESS HOURS INTO THIS CAR AND OVER 1300$ IN NEW PARTS!!! **
It starts perfectly, and runs amazing and stops great.
It's a very comfortable, quiet, warm, roomy luxury car and is a fantastic daily driver.
The heater is very hot and the fan is new and works perfectly.
You can haul 5-6 people quite comfortably if you want to.
When I bought this car it belonged to an older lady who had stopped driving it and garaged it.
I am the second owner.
I wanted to make sure that I could not only commute with this car reliably but also travel long distances without having to worry about break-downs or failures.
I started to replace every part I could on the car whether or not it had failed so that I wouldn't have to worry about it.
Here is a list of what I replaced with NEW PARTS.
All parts are lifetime warranty parts if they were available.
Radiator
Radiator cap
Thermostat
Water pump
Air cleaner
Breather filter
Battery
Pcv valve
Fan clutch
Spark plugs
Spark plug wires
Distributor cap and rotor
Fuel filter
Fuel pump
Alternator
Starter
All the belts
Both Radiator hoses
Heater blower motor
Shocks
Timing chain and gears
Headlights
Headlight switch
I also replaced the stereo with a Kenwood deck and some decent 6x9's in the rear as well as adding a nice aftermarket steering wheel.
You will never drive another car with a Quadrajet that runs like this one. Everyone likes to talk smack about how bad they are, but I'm telling you. . . this thing runs PERFECT. It's like fuel injection... not a single flat spot or problem. It is an absolutely BEAUTIFUL smooth running carb.
There are a few problems with the car that you should know about:
-The interior is not perfect. It's used. It isn't trashed, but it's been lived in.
-The dash has cracks in the top of it.
-The tires are ready to be replaced.
-The headliner is gone. . . It was falling down and I have removed it.
-The paint is not perfect. I really needs to be worked over good with some rubbing compound and then waxed. I am confident a lot of the dullness is just dead paint and oxidation that will come right off with some work.
-There are three spots of body damage: (THIS IS NOT FROM BEING HIT. THESE ARE LOW SPEED IMPACT MARKS! )One is the front corner by the headlight. It needs a new corner, NOTE: The header panel and quater panel are not damaged. Its just the corner. It looks as though the previous owner bumped into a pillar or something at low speed with this corner.
-The second is a small dent in the passenger rear quarter panel . In the picture you can see some surface rusts spots as well. This is from when a dog ran into the side of the car at high speed while chasing another dog... it happened while i was driving... it was NOT from an impact with something hard. It cracked the paint and popped the marker light out of the housing but the dent is very small in the actual body panel itself. Its mostly just the paint cracks that you will notice.
-the third is on the passenger side rear door has a small crease where it looks like the previous owner opened the door into something hard edged. It put a crease in the lower 1/4 of the door.
all are pictured here. Please look carefully at the pictures.
-I noticed that the brake lights have gotten glitch and sometimes work and sometimes don't. I haven't had a chance to look at them and see what is going on yet.
-When I got the car the bearing in the Air conditioning compressor was squeaking so I removed the belt and compressor so that I could replace them at a later date at my convenience.
I have a BRAND NEW IN THE BOX Air Conditioning compressor, new receiver dryer, new accumulator and new A/C belt all ready to go on the car but have not installed them yet. This will go along with the car if you buy it.
-There is a spot on the vinyl top behind the rear passenger door that was repaired by the previous owner. Poorly. Its stained a different color and is very rough. You can see details in the photos. HOWEVER... the rest of the top is in GREAT shape.
-The rear window defroster does not work. I have never investigated to see if it was a switch, or wiring issue.
This car has been perfectly reliable and wonderful to live with. It breaks my heart to sell it, but I have bills that need to be paid.
I had intended to drive this car on vacation to see friends all over the country and keep it for the rest of my life. . . this was going to be my lifelong project car.
I would not hesitate to leave with it for anywhere you want to go today. You could drive coast to coast in this car. . . it is fantastically reliable and very comfortable.
One of the reasons I bought this car in the first place is that I have worked on enough cars to know what is easy to maintain and what is not.
This car is a breeze to work on, and dirt cheap to maintain. . . you can do everything yourself and parts are available everywhere. I will even throw in a spare used alternator and spark plug wires, and belts with the car in case anything ever goes down on the road. (Like I said, all the parts are new but stuff happens)
I also will throw in a brand new set of rear shocks that I tried but where a little stiffer than I liked. If you plan on carrying heavy loads in the car, you could install these shocks. They have been installed and run for only a week.
Go anywhere you like in absolute luxury, in classy American style without fear of break downs!

Shipping/transportation can be discussed with me Via Email or phone... I will work with you, but I would prefer that you come pick up the car... if you need to drive it back to Alaska... It can do it.
Buy with confidence... this car will NOT need a trailer.

New Forza Horizon 2 pack features Chevy Monte Carlo SS, Audi RS6 Avant [w/video]
Tue, Dec 2 2014The latest car pack for Forza Horizon 2 is hitting Xbox Live today, giving Xbox One owners a shot at six new vehicles that date back to 1970. Leading the charge in the hearts and minds of the Autoblog staff is, of course, the 1988 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS, one of the most 80s-tastic performance coupes of its time. Chevy's 80s-era NASCAR representative is joined by another General Motors performance two-door, in the form of the 1970 Buick GSX. Complete with a 455-cubic-inch V8, the GSX could best be thought of as the grandpappy to the iconic GNX of the late 1980s. Crossing the pond, we have a trio of offerings from the United Kingdom, with the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8, the redesigned, aluminum-intensive 2014 Land Rover Range Rover Supercharged and finally, the 2015 McLaren 650S. The mid-engined offerings should be a riot on the winding roads of Forza Horizon 2's European locales, while the Range Rover should make cross-country efforts an absolute breeze. Finally, virtual wagon lovers will be able to enjoy the 2015 Audi RS6 Avant and its combination of Quattro all-wheel drive and a twin-turbocharged V8. As per usual, this latest car pack will be available to gamers for $5 while season pass owners will score the sextet of vehicles for free. Scroll down for a video of the new offerings in action, as well as the official press release from Turn 10 Studios. "Forza Horizon 2" NAPA® Chassis Car Pack Now Available The roads and countryside of "Forza Horizon 2" beg for you to leave your mark on them. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One has arrived, bringing five amazing new cars to blaze trails, break records, or just enjoy a casual cruise in. First off, the new McLaren 650S Coupe's uncanny acceleration and preposterous top speed will satisfy the elitist in you. If you want get away from it all, there's no better way than in the Supercharged Land Rover. Need muscle? Take the classic form of the Buick GSX or the later model Monte Carlo SS for a spin. We all need more wagon in our lives and the Audi RS6 is ready to run around town or serve up surprises at the track. The NAPA® Chassis Car Pack for "Forza Horizon 2" on Xbox One is available today for $5 in the Xbox Live store. Starting today, also available this month for free for all Xbox One players is the 2002 Lotus Esprit V8.
Here are all the cars GM is axing as part of its restructuring
Tue, Nov 27 2018GM plans to kill off a couple of great and a few meh cars as part of its restructuring. Here's a rundown of all the cars being phased out of production. None of the vehicles GM axed were SUVs or crossovers. Instead, it was an action reminiscent of what Ford recently decided to do by discontinuing U.S. sales every Blue Oval sedan. GM just didn't explicitly say, "We're killing our cars," like Ford did — probably a smart move by GM. Keep scrolling down to see the full list of deceased GM models. Chevrolet Volt This one was the most surprising of all the cars GM decided to can, primarily because cars with plugs are supposed to be our future. However, maybe consumer demand just isn't quite there yet for a plug-in like the Volt. We came up with all sorts of ideas for what was to blame for the untimely demise of the Volt, so go check that out for a full breakdown of the situation. Cadillac CT6 Here's another car we'll be sad to see go. Cadillac's flagship sedan was such a joy to drive, and it served as the conduit to deliver GM's semi-autonomous Super Cruise system, which still hasn't been surpassed by any other company's technology in our books, even Tesla's Autopilot. That being said, GM does plan to produce the CT6 until March, with the last cars coming off the line set to be twin-turbo V8 V-Series models. If it's going to go, this seems like a pretty great way to make an exit. We'll be patiently awaiting the next flagship Cadillac once this one finally fades away. Chevrolet Impala The Impala is actually a pretty good car. It doesn't sell terribly, and we think it's a completely satisfactory car to drive. However, people would rather have a Traverse or Equinox these days, making the Impala one of the vehicles to find itself on this list. Chevrolet is keeping its smaller brother, the Malibu, but a big, full-size sedan just isn't what people are ordering up these days. It's unfortunate to see it go, but we won't be broken up over it. Chevrolet Cruze We wouldn't rank the Cruze at the top of the compact car class, but if you were looking for a small, cheap American car, it was either this or the Focus. The Cruze had the potential to be a true small performance car if Chevy had ever wanted to make it into one. But sadly, we're seeing it bow out before Chevy ever tried to slot a hot engine and suspension in there to make it competitive with other hot hatches. A Cruze SS would have made enthusiasts take notice.
