1995 Chevrolet Caprice 9c1 Lt1, Unmarked Police Package, 89k Low Miles, Rare!!! on 2040-cars
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 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. 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. 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! |

Next Chevy Volt will be 2016 model and ride on new chassis
Fri, Mar 7 2014What do we know about the 2016 Chevy Volt? Well, for now, all we can do is try to put the puzzle together without the box. Thankfully, a new batch of pieces has arrived from a new report in Edmunds, which says that the 2016 model year will introduce the second generation of a car that hasn't been dramatically updated since it went on sale in 2010. The new Volt is getting an "evolutionary styling change" and will ride on a new front-drive platform that has been developed by General Motors. GM's Kevin Kelly told AutoblogGreen that he has "no comment on future products," but he did acknowledge that Chevrolet is working on a second-generation Volt, "but I can't say anything about timing." Everybody already knew that a next-gen Volt is coming, so that's not a surprise. What we don't know is any real concrete information on the car itself. The few tidbits of information we do have help define the outlines of the next version of Chevy's halo car, but they're not confirmed yet. For the record, they range from the eye-raising (a $10,000 price drop) to the logical (20 percent more electric range). We can't see the whole picture yet, but the pieces do point to the 2016 Volt, which would be released next year sometime, being a much bigger deal than the last update, when the Volt's range was increased by three electric miles thanks to a battery capacity increase of 16 kWh to 16.5.
Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Spark EV in Canada, Audi to use Valeo electric supercharger
Mon, Apr 13 2015The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
