ONE FAMILY OWNED 1987 CHEVROLET "CAPRICE ESTATE WAGON"
44,210 MILES AND DRIVES STRAIGHT AND STRONG !!!!!.
SOLD NEW in 1987 AT "Lindsay Chevrolet" 60 Center st. Pittsfield Mass.
Awhile back I stumbled across this very sweet "Woodie Wagon" and since I can't keep everything I see I guess I will have to part with it. Someone will really enjoy this vintage wagon.
Some history with the car ................... The owner was a 72 year old woman born in 1941 who used the car very little and worked hard to keep it as nice as humanly possible. She acquired the car in 2004 from (believe it or not ......) from her mother who bought the car brand new. So the two woman were the only registered owners and they kept it in the family for 26 years. I have a clear Connecticut title I received with the car along with the Bill of sale that I will pass along to the new owner .
The car has a nice smooth + quiet running 305 V8 with an automatic transmission that shifts excellent. Air conditioning that blows cold and power windows and a 6 way power drivers seat along with cruise control that all work well. It also has a 2 way tailgate with 3rd seat , . The power window in the tailgate also works well. This is Not a rattle trap............... it is still a very tight car.......... just what you would expect with a 44,000 mile car.....
NON-SMOKER owned. The cigarette lighter does work and is unused.
The interior shows very nice. The cloth seats are not worn or soiled. The rugs are also still very nice. I would suggest either replacing or re-glueing the cloth headliner that is drooping. The original owners manual is also in the glove box.
As far as the body goes It does have some small nicks or dings from use here and there but they are insignificant considering the age of the vehicle. I believe the paint on the car to be original and still retains a nice shine, The underside shows some light hazeing but no rust that's nasty or heavily scabby. I recently had the mid exhaust pipe and muffler replaced with new. The spare tire is still Brand new and stored in the rear compartment.
All in All,,,,,, not a museum piece but a very very pretty wagon !!!!!! someones gonna get a real "SWEET RIDE"
Any questions please email..........
I am looking for a 300 dollar pay pal deposit from the winning bidder immediately following auction end. Selling as is . This description is mearly my opinion. For piece of mind I would suggest looking at the car before bidding or send an independent inspection service to check out the car.

GM slashes prices in China as sales falter
Thu, May 14 2015Buying a vehicle from General Motors' stable of brands might be a lot cheaper in the near future – at least for customers in China. The effort comes as GM hopes to keep sales there growing, and the decision alludes to yet another sign that the Asian country no longer has the booming auto market of past years. GM and its Chinese joint venture partner SAIC are slashing prices by as much as the equivalent to $8,700 on 40 models from Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac, according to The Detroit News. Across all of automaker's nameplates, the overall sales dipped in China in April by 0.4 percent to 258,484 vehicles. Among the drops, Buick was down 8.5 percent, and Chevy shrunk 5.6 percent. Caddy's numbers increased 4.6 percent for the month, though. Buick remains a popular brand in the minds of Chinese consumers, but according to The Detroit News domestic automakers there are starting to eat into the dominance of foreign companies in the market. The country remains important for GM, though. Late last year, it outlined a future strategy that included China as a major pillar, including a $14 billion investment to build five new factories and boost sales.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
Europeans ask Chevy to bring Volt back to Europe
Fri, Aug 14 2015A group of French fans is asking for a jolt of support from General Motors to get the 2016 Chevrolet Volt across the pond. The Association Amperistes et Amis des Vehicules Rechargeables is running a Change.org petition that currently has 383 signatures out of a goal of 500. While the attempt is admirable, it's probably going to take a lot more than several hundred people for the model to make a return to the continent after the poor showing of the Opel Ampera – first-gen Volt's European cousin. The group's major argument for bringing a version of the second-gen Volt to Europe is that consumers need "an intermediate choice between expensive or range-limited pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids with a miserable electric range." Furthermore, such a vehicle would prod the competition to produce similarly efficient electrified models. They also lavish praise on the abilities of the Ampera for its long EV driving range. The supporters aren't entirely kind to GM in the petition, though, and claim the company excluded the original car from marketing efforts there. The Ampera actually enjoyed a strong European launch with more orders than initially expected and briefly topped the best-sellers list among EVs there. It was even named 2012 European Car of the Year. Those halcyon days didn't last long, and by 2014 sales fell off to a trickle. The waning reception caused GM's decision not to introduce a version of the new 2016 Volt there or in Australia. Related Video:
