95 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1 Police Cruiser LT1 (Corvette/Impala SS) Interceptor

You are bidding on a blue 1995 Chevrolet Caprice original 9C1 Police Package, with the 5.7 liter LT1 interceptor (stock Corvette) engine.  Transmission completely professionally rebuilt within this past year, with about 5,000 miles left on warranty.  In fact, I spent more than $4,000 having transmission, new Flowmaster welded dual exhaust (pictures), new radiator, all new rubber, hoses, and maintenance items, new shocks, and more.  I have receipts from certified mechanic facility to show repairs & parts.  This car has been in my family for more than 10 years, driven mostly as a second car, and having been parked for a while when the transmission went out, it has relatively low (127,799) miles for its age. 

Car also has a new Alpine CD/USP/iPod dock stereo in the dash.  Original black steel police rims, with classic Chevy center caps.  This car is a hot theft item (LT1 engine worth $1,000 alone), so I had professionally installed a top of the line Viper LCD 2-Way security alarm with remote start and unlock features ($500) to protect my investment.

Recent Repairs Include:

$2,612

Trans Rebuild (@120,968miles); Torque converter; Wheel sensor; Speed Sensor; Flowmaster mufflers & exhaust system installed

$645

4 New shocks; New belt & New belt tensioner

$500

Viper 2-way remote alarm, w/auto start & unlock

$350

New Radiator, upper & lower hoses

$4,107


There are a few minor mechanical repairs left to do, such as leaking oil cooling line under vehicle (about $100), and power steering fluid leaks.  Passenger side exhaust manifold is cracked.  Brakes and tires are around 50% or so, but not urgent.

Body is all original, with typical police use blemishes in finish.  No collision damage of any kind, but the front bumper cover lower valance is cracked off on the driver side (pictures), and rear bumper cover has scratches and a small gash (pictured).

This is the last of the large frame rear-wheel drive muscle cars, and the powerful Corvette engine and rebuilt transmission provide amazing power and performance.  It is truly a pleasure to drive, with unharnessed power both at take-off and high-end power on the top end on the highway.  There are not many cars that have beaten this Caprice in a friendly drag race, and I love the extra feeling of safety in such a large body and framed vehicle.  Unlike the Ford Crown Victoria or Marauder models, the Caprice Police cruiser has a solid limited-slip differential for better performance and handling.  This package was the inspiration for the Impala SS, which also has all the same extra police engine and enhancements, and they added a nice leather interior, etc.  An Impala SS will cost you $10-15,000.

I’m proud I got the car charged up and solid, and someone else can make it look pretty, or just keep it the way I did as an original police weathered with belt buckle scratches in the paint and holes in the trunk from police antennas.  I took a LOT of pictures, so please check it out thoroughly, and GOOD LUCK!

 

Viper LCD 2-Way Security + Remote Start System

Responder LC3 – the 3rd generation of Responder, complete with SST One Mile Range, the new Priority icons and text seen on a 20% larger liquid-crystal display, an onboard lithium-ion rechargeable battery with mini-USB recharging – all in the slimmest display remote on the market.

Features

·          LCD Screen

·          1 Responder LC3 2-Way and 1 5-button 1-Way

·          Up to 1 Mile Range

Responder LC3 – the 3rd generation of Responder, complete with SST One Mile Range, the new Priority icons and text seen on a 20% larger liquid-crystal display, an onboard lithium-ion rechargeable battery with mini-USB recharging – all in the slimmest display remote on the market.

Combining the best features of Responder with all the “New Technology Platform” advances introduced with the Best of Innovations Award-winning Responder LE, Responder LC3 systems come with one 2-Way LC3 SST one mile range remote and a companion 1-way long range remote.

Responder LC3 lets you command and monitor your vehicle like never before, with our Priority icons – simple and prioritized for easy use - plus clear text labels on the large LCD screen. With the Priority™ User Interface, the five buttons control 24 functions on each of two cars! And with the Priority Icon Map™, the most important icons reside in the center of the large LCD screen, 3 times larger than the less-critical icons positioned on the edges of the screen. It’s undeniably the most sophisticated one mile range LCD remote ever!

In remote start mode, if Active Temp Check is selected, Responder LC3 will display Temperature (in either Fahrenheit or Celsius) instead of the time (the default display). Now you can see the actual temperature inside the vehicle, before walking through the weather to get to it! If it isn’t warm enough inside your car yet, use Runtime Reset to extend your runtime. Don’t worry about forgetting about your car – Responder LC3 reminds you 3 minutes before your time runs out, with an audible tone, a vibration, and on the screen.

If anything happens to your vehicle, Responder LC3 notifies you right away if you are within range, playing the Revenger siren tones from inside your pocket. If anything has happened to your vehicle during your absence, LC3 spells out what happened when you unlock your doors: “Shock Sensor” for example.

Or you can silence your car’s siren and only be alerted on your remote, with Silent Mode2 sirenless arming. Arm your alarm with the door open and Responder LC3 will alert you – audibly and with large readable text: “DOOR OPEN”. Responder LC3 gives you an unprecedented level of control.

Only the important icons are displayed - unused icons disappear from the screen to keep the display clean and simple. “Ghosted” icons – outlined icons only without their typical solid body - indicate that you’ve changed something. For instance, while a solid padlock icon shows your alarm is armed and your doors are locked, an outlined padlock indicates your doors are locked in Valet Mode. The words “Valet Mode” appear to make sure you’re clear on the status of your car.

Some of the many New Technology Platform features incorporated into the system include:

·         XpressPort™ - Dock the Innovations Award-winning CANMAX400DEI databus interface into the Responder LC3 CPU, for a direct digital connection to virtually every new vehicle and databus architecture on the planet

·         D2D Serial Data Port – Gives installers plug-and-play connection to all the other XPRESSKIT interfaces

·         Virtual Tach – No tachometer wire connection required

·         Flex Relays Onboard for Remote Start and Light Flash – eliminates the need for additional relays 80% of the time

·         Control Center – combines the Status LED and Valet Switch with the 2-way Antenna, making the switch easy to locate, and eliminating drilling of any holes in the dash

·         Priority User Interface and Features – including SmartStart™, Timer Start, Runtime Reset, TempCheck and Silent Mode2 siren-less arming modes

Stay in touch with your vehicle at all times with Responder LC3!

GM Recalling 370,000 Trucks For Fire Risk

Mon, Jan 13 2014

DETROIT (AP) - General Motors is recalling 370,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups from the 2014 model year to fix software that could cause the exhaust components to overheat and start a fire. The recall includes 303,000 trucks in the U.S. and 67,000 in Canada and Mexico. All of the trucks involved have 4.3-liter or 5.3-liter engines. GM said eight fires have been reported, but no injuries. One garage was damaged, the company said. All of the incidents occurred in cold weather. The company is asking customers not to leave their trucks idling unattended. GM dealers will reprogram the software for free. The company will inform owners starting Jan. 16. The major recall announcement, which came on Saturday, marred the Silverado's winning of the 2014 North American Truck of the Year Award at the Detroit Auto Show on Monday.

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors

Wed, Oct 22 2014

Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise – in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz
