For Sale 1974 Caprice Classic Convertible

excellent condition to drive or show! (same body style as Impala)

Minimal effort to make showroom quality!

I have owned this car for close to ten years. It has been garaged all it's life and it shows. It still has the original top, a little worn around the edges but still soft, pliable, and by no means needs replaced. The back glass is actual glass, and the top functions very well. I live in South Central Illinois and use the car for vacationing. My wife and I have driven it to the California Coast, Las Vegas, and Florida several times. During a trip out west we had a blow out and dinged all 4 corners of the car. It has since been repaired to factory specs. This happened around 2005 the hood and the trunk lid were about the only thing that was not repainted. My wife and I prefer having a nice quiet vacation rather than an adventure so an undependable car would be out of the question. We have since drove the car to Florida 4 or 5 times. The car still drives, runs, shifts, and Handles as it should. I would not be afraid to jump in this car right now and drive it to anywhere in the Continental US. and back home. If you are the winning bidder keep in mind that you could fly in and drive it home. It is that dependable!

This car does get poor mileage any where from 11mpg to 15mpg at best are the results I have experienced.

I have modified a few things to make the car more user friendly.

Mods :

Air conditioner has been switched to the new freon

Electronic ignition

Distributor curved

Tilt Wheel

Dual exhaust all the way back

Rear Air shocks

Am Fm cd mp3 player Xm compatible

I did not keep the original parts except for the original steering column. I really do not wish to sell the car but, my wife asked if I would consider thinning out my toys.

So for ONE TIME ONLY!!!!! I will list this car.

I encourage anyone to come look at the Convertible before bidding if this is not possible please email me with questions. Do not assume anything, this is almost a 40 year old vehicle and I want your purchase to be a pleasant one with no regrets. If you're like me you'll always have buyers remorse. In the case of this car I have not regretted owning it one moment, and I paid a premium price for it.

If you do not have the means to purchase and maintain this vehicle I urge you not to bid, all bidders with a Feed back score less than 25 positive feedback at 100% must email me before bidding. Other wise I will be forced to decline your bid. I am also requesting a $200.00 nonrefundable payment to be made right at auction close, for listing fees. This will be applied to the balance at the time of purchase of the high bidder.

Please note the car is for sale locally also, so the auction can end at anytime.

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.

I will assist in anyway I can to help this process but do not assume anything, ask first. Also I do not wish to sell internationally.

The car will not be shipped or the title sent to the new owner until payment has cleared the bank. Cash always works best!

Thank You for taking the time to read the full auction description, if you have any questions or request more pictures please email me early in the auction. I may not be able to answer your request in the eleventh hour.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
