1967 Chevy Caprice 2 Door Coupe 327 V8 - 275 Hp on 2040-cars
Bensalem, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I have owned this car for over ten years, it was bought locally in January 2004. The car was garage kept when I bought it and I have always kept it inside. I'm not sure if it was garage kept since new. The person I bought it from was not the original owner. This car is basically in the same shape it was when I bought it. I'm sure it was taken care of quite well, I was glad I was able to find it and get it. I bought it locally so I was able to look at it before buying it. I know that's easier than buying it over the internet, so I will do my best to describe it to you. I don't want to make the car sound any better or worse than it is. My nephew is doing me a favor listing this car on his Ebay account. He is not a car guy. I don't have an Ebay account or own a computer, but I do have a cell phone. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me. My name is Charlie and my number is:215-416-4702. The body of the car is straight. There are no major dents or rust. The paint is mostly original, except where some areas were painted over the years. Rust is starting on the lower quarter panels and front fender. Lowers, wheel wells, lower inner quarter panels, floors, and trunk floor are solid and nice. The rust has not been bonded over, just amateur touch up. The frame is good and all the trim is there. It's all mostly in good shape. The glass and vinyl top are good. The rear quarter skirts came with the car when I got it, they are not from this car. The interior is original and in great shape. There is fraying on the driver side front seat bottom. I changed out the AM radio with an old school two knob stereo which fit right in, The dash is not hacked up. It is a 327 4bl. 275 HP and runs great. (Smokes a little when it starts after sitting, which is probably valve seals.) 400 Turbo Trans-------SHIFTS GREAT! Limited Slip Rear-------No Problems The suspension and brakes were all checked out and gone over a few years ago. The AC blows cold, I never touched it in over ten years. A few minor things wrong with the car are: a cable that changes hot to cold from heater control is not working (Maybe Stretched) That is why glove box liner is out. I change it manually in summer and winter. A few bulbs are out for the dash lights. Also included with the sale are: *Rear Quarter Skirts & Moldings For Skirts *4 Caps For Factory Rally Wheels *4 Original Caprice Wheel Covers *1967 Chevrolet Owner's Manual *3 Of The 4 Original Interior Floor Mats *Glove Box Liner All are in picture of the trunk.
This is a nice, complete, and solid driver. It is not a show car but not bad either. I found it to be a nice find. Having the 327 4 bl. 275 HP, 400 Turbo Automatic, Limited Slip Rear and A/C. Yes there are a lot more options it could have, but most of these old Chevy's were 283 V8s with power glide transmissions. Leave it alone and enjoy it, or it is a complete car to restore to perfect. I had pictures under the car that were deleted accidently, if you are interested I can get them again.Thank you for looking and good luck! CAR IS SOLD AS IS! |

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
First 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray spotted crashed in the wild
Tue, 12 Feb 2013This restyled blue 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is wearing manufacturer plates, and it appears to be the same one seen around the internet in various pictures lately. This crash is likely not part of the Chevrolet testing regimen, however. Digital Corvettes forum member gpetry posted the shot with a note: "got this picture e-mailed from a friend in Arizona last week..." No circumstances are given, other than the incident occurred in the thick of a set of curvy roads, and the coupe ping-ponged off a guardrail and into the rock wall. Hopefully everyone involved in the incident walked away.
It may not be a pretty thing to see, a crashed sports car that's not even available for sale yet, but rest easy. Many pre-production cars are used for development and then unceremoniously crushed and scrapped, anyway. If that's the case here, that makes this wrecked 'Vette less of a tragedy and more of a case of exceptional efficiency.
