This is a nice 1995 Chevy Caprice wagon with the 350 LT1 engine. Car runs and drives great and is driven every day. This wagon has around 164,000 miles on it (mileage will change slightly because it is driven). The engine has very good power and gets good gas mileage. We have installed a K&N cold air intake on it  and it has a new optispark distrubertor  and water pump which was installed within this past year. Brand new battery installed last week. New front rotors and brakes this year. The tires are in good shape. Those are just hubcaps on the car. The drivers side exhaust has a small leak somewhere in the rear section that just started. We installed  a new transmission with better then stock parts in it a few years ago and it shifts great. There are no known mechanical issues other then the small exhaust leak. We drive this wagon everywhere and would drive it cross country if we needed to. There is a factory tow hitch on the car also.  The car rides great. We were told that the A.C. has a leak in one of the lines near the battery ( looks like battery acid some how got on it and ate it away in one spot so its not working right now. It worked great up until this past summer. The cloth  interior is in great shape and shows very little wear. It has 3 rows of seating. It has a pioneer cd player with remote and fairly new speakers through out. Both front seats are full power. I have replaced all window rollers in all 4 doors. Has power windows and locks that all work. Headliner is in perfect shape and all interior lights work. All the digital gauges work. ( pic of digital gauges was taken when the car had less miles. Car does have 164,000 miles on it now).  The rear window hatch does need some new gas struts. The rear windows were tinted many years ago and has scratches and some light tears but still looks good.  Needs a new wiper pump grommet installed on the rear window pump. Its just started leaking a few months ago. The body is in good shape. There are a couple small ripples on the drivers side fender and a couple small paint chips in other places. There is one small ding on drivers side quarter panel and the small section of  molding is missing. The molding on the rear of car above bumper is also missing. We were gonna shave everything and remove molding so we never replaced those pieces. The spare tire well looks like there is a little bit of bondo thats cracking. I see no other rust or issues with the body.  The paint shows its age but does shine up good. The car needs a good detail and buffing. There are some light swirl marks on hood from one done afew years ago. It has the painted grill on it. I have tried my best to describe this cars condition and pointed out the few issues with the car. The inspection sticker  does run out next month but if you live in Virginia then we will get the car inspected for you. If you have any questions   or need more pictures  please let me know and ill get back to you ASAP.

GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible

Wed, Aug 1 2018

The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war

Sun, 30 Dec 2012

A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
