1996 Chevy Caprice Classic (9c1) Lt1 on 2040-cars
Barrington, Illinois, United States
|
This is a 1996 Chevy Caprice 9C1. It was originally a municipal vehicle in Elk Grove Village. I am selling it as is. It has the LT1 350 5.7 V8 motor. Power locks works. Trunk pops. This has been my daily driver for almost 5 years. It runs and drives well. It will be a great car for someone that will care for it. I am the second owner.
Things that have been done since 2009. Most done in the past 2 year. • Gas tank from junk yard • Fuel filter • Fuel pump • Fuel pressure regulator • Shocks • Hotchkis four link suspension • Hooker headers and flowmaster super 44s • Pro comp powder coated steel wheels (off-set 2 inches to stick out further than stock) • All new break lines • All new calipers • Relatively new rotors and pads • Wheel bearings • Radiator • Water pump • Heater core hoses • Detroit locker (real locker not true track or other Eaton posi) • Alternator • Idler pulley • 40% tread left on Michelin hydro-edge tires • Optima 6 pack red top battery • Original ignition switch broke. Cheap quick fix by hot-wiring with a switch for ignition on and a button to start it. (Fixable if you buy the parts. The cable snapped between the tumbler and original ignition switch located under the dash above the steering column) • Electric cooling fans are also on a switch - Starter replaced
Things to consider for future repair • Windows need to be glued back onto tracks but all windows will go up and down relatively easy with some manual assistance • Headers leak at heads. I have brand new aluminum chrushable gaskets that will resolve the issue. They will be provided with the car. • Steering has play. I have Hotchkis complete tie rods and end links that will come with the car • Some rust on lower quarter panels behind rear wheels. There are two small spots on the floor that have rusted through. The floor is still very sturdy and the holes can be repaired. Hole inside trunk on the passenger's side where the wheel well meets the trunk. Normal surface rust on frame and spots under the hood for a car with this mileage. • Air conditioning worked last summer. Something malfunctioned so I unplugged the compressor. Should be repairable. • A normal sized stereo will fit into the dash. All wires are there and ready to be hooked up. 1 pioneer speaker in each front door. No rear speakers but there is wiring. |

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines
Thu, 13 Dec 2012General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.
