This amazing “survivor”, all original, numbers matching, 1984 Chevrolet Caprice Estate Wagon WITH the 3rd row "Jump Seat" with less than 63,000 original miles on it has had "technically" a total of 3 owners in its 30 year pampered life, but really, I'm feel I'm the 2nd owner.  The car is an all original car from New Jersey.  The original owners had the car until 2013, gave it to their grandson who had it only a few months.  He didn't want it and decided to sell it to a gentleman that I bought it from, who only had it a couple months himself.  He just bought it to flip and make a little money I believe.  When I bought it, it was still registered in the grandson's name (the second owner).

 

Now, on to the description of this gorgeous vehicle.  This Caprice Estate was never smoked in, was sparingly driven (as I said, it currently has less than 63,000 original miles), lovingly cared for and always garaged since new.  Not only does it look virtually new, it drives like new!  The original owner’s manual is still in the glove box.  Included with the car is the original jack, jack instructions and a brand new full size spare tire.  I have tons of receipts from the original owner validating the mileage which shows all the items done to the car over the years and very recently.  More on that later....

 

This 1984 Caprice Estate is now being made available to some very lucky bidder.  The only reason I’m selling it is because I have my eye on another classic car I found.  If it doesn't sell, I’m perfectly OK with hanging on to it.  I'm in no hurry to sell it at all.  I know what I have so I'm not willing to "give it away".

 

This Caprice Estate was never hit and everything is in excellent factory original condition, including the paint and the "wood" decals.  The car honestly looks like a two year old car.  All the power windows and locks, lights, turn signals, horn, cruise control, gauges, wipers (and "squirters") and radio/cassette tape deck are in perfect working order.  Remember that door buzzer/dinger when you inserted the key?  Even THAT works perfectly!  No electrical issues at all.  The paint (which is 100% factory original, chrome bumpers (virtually showroom new original condition) chrome trim around the wheel wells, stainless trim and rubber trim are all in very good to excellent condition.  Roof rack is in like new condition.  No rust or pitting anywhere on any chrome surfaces.  This car handles beautifully and holds the road nice and straight at 40 MPH or 70 MPH.  No pulling at all and is very tight and responsive.  The car tracks straight when driving and braking.  The brakes work beautifully with no issues at all.  This Caprice rides on a new set of white wall all season radial tires mounted on the original factory wheels and original wire wheel covers to maintain its original factory look.  The exterior is incredible!  The ALL original cranberry color still has a brilliant shine!  It has a few nicks/blemishes here and there but from 3 feet away, they aren't noticeable and don't show up on the pictures.  The floors and frame as well as under the hood and cargo area and wheel wells are all solid and rust free with no signs of rust or rot anywhere.  Same for all the door jams and under the doors (see pictures).  NO RUST ANYWHERE!!  There is no way this car was ever driven in the winter.  There is just some light surface rust underneath the car, typical for the age of the car. Nothing at all to worry about.  All the glass is perfect.  No chips or cracks anywhere.  All the doors open and close effortlessly, just as new and all the door jams look new as well.  NO RUST anywhere here.

 

But that’s just the beginning!  The stunning interior is absolutely breathtaking and 98% original!  I had a new headliner and sun visors professionally installed ($750) using OEM matching color and material.  Looks awesome!  Nothing has been modified or “cut up” in any way.  It looks exactly as it did back in 1984 and looks brand new.  The upholstery, door panels, seat backs, carpet, headliner (no sagging, fading or rips), dash pad (no cracks or fading), chrome and stainless trim pieces are in excellent to near new condition.  This interior is, for all intensive purposes, in brand new original condition.  This Caprice Estate is equipped with the original AM/FM stereo/cassette with front and rear speakers (which works perfectly), power steering, power brakes, electric clock (which actually works and keeps PERFECT time, cigar lighter (works great).  The A/C blows cold with no issues.  The heat works great with no issues.

 

This Caprice has the original 305 V8 engine with a the original but rebuilt 4BBL carb, which is hooked to its original transmission (4 speed) with overdrive.  Both perform as new.  Absolutely no knocking, smoking or hesitation from the engine and the transmission shifts through the gears like a new car.  No slippage at all.  No leaks anywhere and no burning of any oil.  It’s very smooth with no issues.  I brought this car to the Woodward Dream Cruise last year and “cruised” in 2 hours straight of bumper to bumper traffic just idling in 85 degree heat and the car didn’t miss a beat.  No overheating and stayed in the “normal” temperature range the whole time.

DON’T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE THIS AMAZING 1984 CAPRICE ESTATE, WHICH WILL GIVE YOU YEARS OF DRIVING ENJOYMENT AND PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP!

 

READY FOR SHOW OR GO!

 

NO DISAPPOINTMENTS!

 

This 1984 Caprice Estate has been lovingly cared for since new.  This is a vehicle that anyone would be proud of and this car is wonderful to drive.  It turns heads everywhere it goes.  I get more looks for this car than any other classic car I have owned and I have had quite a few.  It brings back so many memories for so many people.  It took me YEARS to find this car in this condition.  They simply don't exist anymore.

 

I see no reason why the winning bidder couldn’t fly in and drive this vehicle home to anywhere in the country.

 

As everybody knows, nothing is perfect.  The paint has a couple of tiny stone chips on the hood and the paint has some minor blemishes on the hood here and there but are hardly noticeable, unless you get right up on the car.  There is one small ding on the right rear quarter panel which you really have to look for as well as a couple tiny dings on the hood.  Again, it’s hardly noticeable and doesn't detract from the look of the car.  The rear bumper fillers need replacing.  I have already purchased the parts so they will be included with the sale of the car.  The front door arm rests are starting to "lift" a bit as  you can see in the pictures.  The power antenna doesn't work anymore but radio and tape deck work perfectly as well as all the speakers.

Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."
