That's right biotch's, I got a Chevy! Here's a few pictures of her: 1985 Caprice Classic, 4 door sedan, 305 - 4 barrel carb, TH700-R4 tranny. My near-future plans are to buy some headers, a new air filter and container, a small tach, a grant steering wheel, and clean the hell out of the engine bay.

Nice car. I just signed you guestbook like 10 mins ago. (cardomain) My grandpa has 2 caprice's. And another one in the junkyard for parts. Very nice cars, they are reliable. Well his are, if your's has been taken care of by the previous owner..chances are it will last for a LONG time.

That it will.. I'm thinking of maybe beefing up the engine a tiny bit (headers, cutout switch, new air filter) and leaving it at that. Even today I was at a car cruise, some ricers pull up ( And I mean ricers.. Neon with spinner hubcaps, Cavalier with 6" dual exhaust, Celica with busted body kit and half of the car primered, half painted, a hyundai tiburon on steelies with a wing and fart cannon ) and thought they were tough shit. I mean, there were some killer imports there (Turbocharged B18 Integra, TT 300ZX), but these kids were funny. I know all of them, and they think their cars are the shiznit. So me and them, along with this first gen RX-7 and a minivan on 20" rims go on the highway and they start to race.. and believe it or not, I was beating all of them. Me and the RX were neck and neck near the end.
I wish I had snagged some pics, my grandpa (former step-dad's father) brought his Nova he just finished. Hugger orange, 454 bored over to a 483 I believe.. 4,000 into the engine alone, 2,000 into the tranny. This car is unbelievable, its a 67 I believe.. oh man, its beautiful. 5 speed manual, custom made it a full frame.. full black leather interior.. And there were some other tight cars too. I actually saw a car just like everyone's on this site. Probably the beefiest was a Corvette with a centrifigural supercharger. Poor guy had a tough time getting out of the grass, kept throwing it everywhere. lol.. My mouth dropped when that guy took off down the highway. Damn fast.
I've taken enough of your time. Later guys, vote up my Caprice! ;D

The Caprice will be on the road miles and miles from now. Too bad its kind of a gas hog, I'm not used to 15 MPG. My cousin is most likely selling his Crapmaro to my sister's bf, so I'm taking out the Posi rearend, gearbox, rims and tranny. Might also take the seats if I can. hehe ;D

hey man, nice caprice. ive got an 84 wagon (you might recognize me from cardomain. i guess i piss alot of people off cause of a glitch i found in the system that lets me stay on the front page without people being able to vote me down.) anyways. BEAUTIFUL caprice!!! in fact, thats one of the nicest ive ever seen. i say keep the wire hubcaps. it keeps it looking classic. just do some exhuast to her, MAYBE intake and carb and throw on some nitrous and she will be running 13s no problem the paint looks to be in really good condition from what i seen. BUT if its really crappy and you want a change.. then i would suggest painting it all white and taking off your hubcaps and painting your wheels black. make it look like an old cop car, that could be fun. and oh yea, mine gets 15mpg too... damn i love gettin this good of gas mileage my camaro gets 7 and this truck im getting might get 10.

The paint is crisp all over. The front left fender is a little banged up, the only way I'll replace it is if I find one the exact same color. I don't want to be running around 3 tone and all (already two tone, one more color is too much lol). It is a nice car though, real clean.. Runs good too for the mileage it has. I like those rims on your Caprice, maybe I should get those too. I saw your Caprice on CD, is the glitch just to vote yourself to the top then take off all the voting parts? I wanna do it with my CRX
