Original 1966 Chevy Caprice 283, 3 on the tree!
First year of the Caprice! Texas body original.
Three speed standard on the column! Rare Aztec Brown on  Aztec Brown color, see the vinyl, top nice.

This car has literally been in a time capsule since the 80's when it was put in dry storage!

It is as original and untouched as they come.
See some light rust around rear wheels.
The trunk, frame, and floors solid.

It has a 283, three on the tree, with 88,000 original miles.

  Was brought out of storage and a new clutch, alternator, battery, and all the little things to make it run like new were professionally installed.
We have put over 200 miles on it since all the work was done and it is a true firm, quiet, vintage, cruiser , we went over 100 miles at 70 mph plus.

 There are no fluid drips, or funny noises no smoke white or black coming out of the very quiet exhaust, it can be driven off the lot to anywhere in the country without a doubt. Radio and clock does not work and blinkers have to be used by hand up and down to flash.

All the lights work otherwise. Needs a latch for the middle front seat console.

  It has original paint, interior, everything as this 1 owner car originally came with, see door jams and interior!  Headliner tight with one small quarter size hole. Dash a couple of splits, really not bad, drivers side windshield has a crack running down it on far left.

Its not perfect, but it is pretty nice, see pics and ask questions.

Great car to frame off restore or just drive it like it is this summer and restore it as a winter project, we recently took this on a 100 mile test run at speeds up to 80mph, no mechanical issues whatsoever!

Note: $200 down payment required within 24 hours of auction close, balance due within 1 week.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.
