Canal Winchester, Ohio, United States

Canal Winchester, Ohio, United States

This is one of the last of it's kind available anywhere. This 1995 Chevrolet Caprice Classic 9C1 is an original, low-mileage car that is in good shape for it's age. It is finished in Medium Adriatic Blue Clearcoat Metallic, one of the most desirable colors available on the Caprice. If you are searching for the ultimate Chevrolet Police Package vehicle this may be the only opportunity you have to find one with this kind of mileage...

You are viewing an extremely low-mileage, always unmarked, loaded 1995 Chevrolet Caprice Classic with the coveted "9C1 Police Package". The 9C1 includes all of the heavy-duty and performance options, in addition to a lot of "police specific" items. This vehicle is highly sought after and they are known to last for hundreds of thousands of miles. The fuel economy is fantastic (26-30 mpg on the highway) and with all of the heavy-duty components, will outlast nearly any vehicle in the world if maintained properly. These were, perhaps, the most famous police cars ever manufactured and have been rated by many as the best police car ever built. They are blindingly fast, and capable of speeds in excess of 150 mph. When these cars were introduced, they changed the entire game.

Recently out of service from the State of Ohio, Department of Mental Health, where it was used very little it's entire time in service, with only 89,942 actual, documented miles on it. This car sat more than it was used, according to the State of Ohio. It was the only car that they still owned that was this old, and they had no idea it was even still in their fleet when it was turned in. This is a decent example of a very rare, hard to find car in the most "in-demand" color.

The original finish is in good shape and this vehicle has an absolutely spotless Carfax report. It has never been involved in any accidents and has never had any paintwork or damage repaired.

This car is far from perfect, so do NOT expect a new car...it is a nearly 20 year-old car that was just taken out of service last fall.

Recent work that was done on the car (within the last couple of hundred miles) includes; brand-new front brakes, new "Optispark" distributor, newly re-programmed computer, new fuel pump, fresh oil change, complete coolant system flush and re-fill, new brake master cylinder, new spark plugs, new spark plug wires, and new coolant temperature sending unit. The fuel gauge operates erratically and may have a loose ground, the A/C functions and is complete but does not blow very cold, and it does have a slight exhaust leak which is probably a muffler that will need replaced. There is wear on the driver's side carpet (as with most Caprices) but overall, the interior is pretty decent. These are the deficiencies we have noted, but as with any used car there may be other items that need attention that we are unaware of. The car runs and drives great, there are no "check engine" lights or otherwise on, and I have personally put a few hundred miles on it myself over the last couple of weeks. It runs cool, smooth and fast and the transmission shifts perfectly. Overall, a decent example of a hard to find car. It is NOT a show car, nor is it in "mint" or "perfect" condition, it is an original, unmolested survivor that should be preserved and driven, or restored to perfection if someone wants to someday...of course, enjoying it as it is would be what I would do for now.

This vehicle had a spotlight, which was removed when it was placed into service, and the hole was sealed (this could be replaced easily if you desire). It never had a light bar or decals installed anywhere. It has never been in regular police service. There is one hole drilled with an antenna mount on the rear 1/4 panel. I can place an antenna on the mount if the winning bidder so desires.

This unit includes all of the options you would expect on a 9C1 Caprice...power mirrors, power windows (with driver's window "express down" feature), rear window defogger, power locks, full body side moldings, factory AM/FM stereo, driver and passenger side airbags, cruise control, full-factory carpeting, Medium Blue bucket front seating with matching rear bench seat. These items, of course, are just the beginning of the list of equipment on this car.

It is finished in the factory Medium Adriatic Blue Clearcoat Metallic finish with Medium Blue interior. This is one of the most beautiful colors available on the Caprice.

All of the factory manuals and all of the documentation from the State of Ohio are included with the vehicle, and are in place in the glove box. 

The original, full size spare tire is in place in the trunk with the factory spare tire cover still present.

This unit is also equipped with, of course, the full "9C1" police package which includes the 5.7-liter LT1 (350 cubic-inch) H.O. V8 engine, 4-speed overdrive heavy-duty transmission, 3.08 rear axle ratio, Good Year Eagle RS-A 225-70VR-15 police-spec, ultra-high performance radials mounted on the factory, heavy-duty, 15" vented police wheels with factory bolt-on police center caps, dual exhaust, 4-wheel disc brakes, severe-duty suspension, heavy-duty cooling, heavy-duty frame, engine oil cooler, power steering fluid cooler, transmission low-gear blockout, certified police speedometer, silicone radiator and heater hoses, instrumentation light shut-off ("blackout") switch, and much, much more. 

For those of you who know Chevrolet police cars, you are probably already aware that the Caprice police sedans were the cars that the Impala SS's were based on. They were known to be better performing and have actually become harder to find as not many survived.

Caprices like this one are becoming nearly extinct, so here's your opportunity if you've been looking for one in a rare and desirable color combination with low mileage

These are the Caprices that aficionados lust after, and this is an unmolested example. It is very responsive, smooth-shifting and, of course, very fast. 

This is a factory, all Medium Adriatic Blue Metallic car, not a re-painted color change like you will see for sale elsewhere.

This unit is in good overall condition and has less than the normal wear and tear you would expect to find on a used police vehicle. This vehicle, as most used police vehicles do, however, will have imperfections...this typically includes; scratches, chips, nicks, dings, rust, etc....that being said, this car has no known major mechanical defects and it runs and drives good. Please, keep in mind, we strive to find the nicest used vehicles possible, but they are still used vehicles. 

It is a very nice driving, tight unit...not a beat-up police car. It has never been used for any type of normal police or patrol work. 

DON'T PASS THIS ONE UP, 9C1 CAPRICES ARE VERY, VERY HARD TO FIND AND I DOUBT YOU WILL SEE ANOTHER FOR SALE IN THE NEAR FUTURE WITH THIS LOW OF MILEAGE, IF AT ALL. 

This 1995 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1 will sell to the high bidder at the end of the auction, this is a NO RESERVE AUCTION. Please complete all inspections BEFORE bidding...if you win the auction, you own the vehicle. 

Because of increasing expenses in every regard, we have been forced to raise our fees by $50, this is the first time in ten years that we have done this, so hopefully you will understand. There will be a $175 documentation fee and a $15 title fee added to each sale, these will be the ONLY additional fees you will be responsible for, unless you reside in the state of Ohio, in which case you will need to pay the proper amount of sales tax, based on the current rate for the county in which you reside. Temporary 30-day plate and registration is also available for $18.50. We do not charge any additional fees and there are no hidden charges. Most sellers are charging double this amount currently. 

I welcome any and all questions you might have prior to bidding on this Caprice. I do reserve the right to end the auction early if the vehicle sells locally prior to the end of auction (please call if you like).

I am a law-enforcement officer as well and as such, work long hours so you are free to call me as late in the evening as you like. I can be reached anytime at (614) 893-3857. I will take calls 24/7 up until the end of the auction. 



Winning bidder agrees to forward a 25% partial payment (unless a lesser amount is agreed upon PRIOR to the end of the auction) at end of auction via direct bank wire transfer or by overnighted cashier's check, money order or certified funds. Balance will be due within seven days of end of auction or at time of pick up or delivery, whichever comes first. I will help in any way possible to arrange transportation. I can store the vehicle for up to 90 days, until pick up can be arranged, as long as it's paid for in full. 

I may be able to deliver this vehicle personally, depending on your location, at a reduced rate. 

I have been buying, selling and driving unique, specialty vehicles for over ten years now and take pride in offering only low-mileage vehicles that are not "run of the mill", beat-up cars and trucks. I specialize in the hard to obtain cars, SUV's and trucks, Dodge Hemi Charger and Ram 5.9 Cummins Diesel trucks, Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor and 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel trucks, Chevrolet Impala and Caprice 9C1 and 9C3 police vehicles, collectible and rare cars, trucks and vans. If there are any questions at all, again, please don't hesitate to call me at (614) 893-3857. I will answer all e-mails as quickly as possible. Thanks and good luck! 

Because of people who bid and do not contact me or pay, I am being forced to implicate a rule pertaining to low-feedback bidders. ANY BIDDER WHO BIDS, WITH A FEEDBACK OF 5 OR LESS, WILL HAVE THEIR BID RETRACTED IMMEDIATELY unless they contact me first, prior to bidding. I hope everyone understands, and I thank our hundreds of happy customers, but a few bad apples have spoiled the proverbial bunch. Thanks for understanding. 


Please remember, this is a used government vehicle and it is not new. It is, however, in better condition than most like vehicles you will see. As such, it will have flaws consistent with the miles and age of the vehicle, and with government use. That being said, it is in good shape and runs & looks good. It is not what you would typically expect, or what you will find elsewhere for sale. Please, if you want to come and look at it, do so BEFORE bidding...or call me, as always, at 614-893-3857 or e-mail me and I will answer any questions you may have. Thanks!

GM is quietly slashing prices on base models

Fri, Jan 30 2015

While General Motors' fourth quarter financial figures haven't yet been released, the automaker seems to be weathering a potentially rocky time well, even beating third-quarter projections last year. To keep the climb going, the company is launching new base trims for several popular models that make them cheaper than ever but with tight dealer margins. The new entry-level trims are the Chevrolet Cruze L, Equinox L, GMC Terrain SL and Buick LaCrosse 1SV. Buyers lose some content by picking them, but the prices are slashed. According to Cars Direct, the biggest savings are on the LaCrosse, where customers pay $31,065, plus $925 destination, $2,570 less than the previous base 1SB trim but must accept things like 17-inch wheels and no cargo net in the back. If you're wondering how Buick can remove only a little equipment but cut the price so much, it's because the company also slashed dealer margins. According to Cars Direct, the difference between the invoice and MSRP for the LaCrosse 1SV is only around $150, compared to around $1,350 before. The disparity is even greater for the Cruze with an $81 difference in the prices, compared to about $600 for the LS version. Showrooms are expected to keep very low stocks of these trims, though. "Dealers use such vehicles to get people in the door, but they do not generally want to do high volumes of these strippers. The margins are next to nothing; they don't make much money off these cars," said Ed Kim, Vice President of Industry Analysis for AutoPacific to Autoblog. Dealers are also expected to advertise that these new base trims undercut major competitors. For example, the Cruze L rings up for about $2,320 less than a Honda Civic LX, according to Cars Direct. One potential drawback for buyers is that these models might not be eligible for incentives. While the attractive prices might get customers into dealers, folks may not actually end up driving home with these entry-level models. Kim indicated base trims also make up a small portion of the sales mix. "Consumers aren't asking for stripped out vehicles, even at the low end of the marketplace," he said.

GM adds 1,200 jobs at Detroit-Hamtramck plant

Thu, Oct 22 2015

General Motors is making a big move at its Hamtramck, MI, factory, announcing it will add a second shift and hire over 1,200 workers within the next several months. It's expected that by early 2016, the factory will employ over 2,800 workers to build the Chevrolet Volt, Impala, Malibu, Cadillac ELR, and by early next year, the new CT6. According to GM Hamtramck spokesperson Courtney Zemke, 40 of the 1,200 positions are for salaried employees, while the remainder will be hourly positions. As for where these employees will go, positions are being made available across the factory, so GM isn't focusing on any particular area for its new hires. It's a similar story behind the hiring surge itself. GM said in its press release that the "second shift is necessary to meet forecasted market demand," a position Zemke reiterated. It's a matter of demand across the plant's portfolio, rather than any one particular product seriously outstripping supply. Naturally, the United Auto Workers is happy with the move. "The workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck is second to none," UAW Local 22 Shop Chairman Don LaForest said in the attached release. "We appreciate the opportunity to expand our UAW-GM family." Hiring is going on now, with the second shift slated to get underway in early 2016. GM's Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly to Add Second Shift and More Than 1,200 Jobs Plant will nearly double its workforce by early 2016 2015-10-22 DETROIT – General Motors is nearly doubling its workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly by adding a second shift and more than 1,200 hourly and salaried jobs. The addition of a second shift will increase the plant's workforce to approximately 2,800 people when hiring is completed. The second shift is necessary to meet forecasted market demand for the five cars produced at Detroit-Hamtramck. "This is the result of the award-winning vehicles Detroit-Hamtramck produces and the confidence GM has in our team to build world-class quality for our customers," said Plant Manager Gary West. Second shift hiring is underway, and the shift is scheduled to begin operations in early 2016. "The workforce at Detroit-Hamtramck is second to none," said UAW Local 22 Shop Chairman Don LaForest. "We appreciate the opportunity to expand our UAW-GM family." The 4.1 million-square-foot Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly opened in 1985. GM has invested $1 billion in the plant over the last six years, making it one of the company's most-agile manufacturing facilities in North America.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
