You are bidding on a 1995 Chevrolet Caprice Station Wagon. This originally had the woodgrain tape on the sides which I removed as well as all of the bodyside moldings. I did some painting in places where that was removed. The paint could use a wet sanding, as I have not had time to do that. I installed an Impala SS grille in matching Dark Cherry Metallic. I put on a set of 1957-style chrome cone shaped wheel covers. I painted the whitewalls red. Inside, I put in a set of over-the-hump style vintage vinyl floor mats that have twin lions and crest embossed on them. With these touches and the original shape of the rear fenders the overall look is reminiscent of a 1950s custom cruiser.

The car has 99,303 miles on it. The 350 LT1 engine starts easy and runs smooth. The transmission shifts as it should. The brakes are fine. No rattles or vibration, or any other issues when out on the road. The interior is clean. The dash is absolutely flawless. The tires are quite new and show very little wear. The spare tire is full size and shows very little use. The rear-facing third seat shows no wear.

Items that could use attention:

The power mirrors and power locks are not currently working. The manual locks are fine and the mirrors can be adjusted manually. All power windows and power seats are working fine.

The parking brake light remains on, although the parking brake itself is working fine.

Needs a front end alignment, as it noticeably pulls to the left especially when braking.

Air conditioning needs a recharge.

Could use exhaust in the near future.

Driver's seat has a couple of cigarette burns, but interior does not smell like smoke at all.

Includes owner's manual, Haynes manual, and a lot of maintenance records.

***Payment method can be discussed at auction end. Shipping is at buyer's expense, but I am willing to assist with loading.

Feel free to ask any questions. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet 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.

GM warning 800,000 owners that their cars may need oil changes more frequently than they say

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

The days of changing your engine oil every 3,000 miles are long gone thanks to most cars having automatic oil monitoring systems, but about 800,000 General Motors vehicles apparently have incorrect monitoring software that is leading to premature engine component wear. According to Autoweek, certain 2010-2012 Buick LaCrosse, Regal, Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain models equipped with 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines could be going too long in between oil changes resulting in a higher-than-normal number of warranty claims for the engine's balance chain. The balance chain links the balance shaft to the crankshaft, and a worn one can produce higher noise levels.
As a fix, GM dealers will be reprogramming the software for the monitors in an effort to reduce the interval between oil changes, which varies based on driving habits and conditions. Through February 2015, the software update will be done at no cost to vehicle owners, but since this is not a recall, after that point, it will be up to the discretion of dealers as to whether or not they will charge for the service. What isn't immediately clear is whether GM plans on giving assistance to out-of-warranty customers who are experiencing engine issues from the worn chain.
