ONE FAMILY OWNED 1987 CHEVROLET "CAPRICE ESTATE WAGON"
44,210 MILES AND DRIVES STRAIGHT AND STRONG !!!!!.
SOLD NEW in 1987 AT "Lindsay Chevrolet" 60 Center st. Pittsfield Mass.
Awhile back I stumbled across this very sweet "Woodie Wagon" and since I can't keep everything I see I guess I will have to part with it. Someone will really enjoy this vintage wagon.
Some history with the car ................... The owner was a 72 year old woman born in 1941 who used the car very little and worked hard to keep it as nice as humanly possible. She acquired the car in 2004 from (believe it or not ......) from her mother who bought the car brand new. So the two woman were the only registered owners and they kept it in the family for 26 years. I have a clear Connecticut title I received with the car along with the Bill of sale that I will pass along to the new owner .
The car has a nice smooth + quiet running 305 V8 with an automatic transmission that shifts excellent. Air conditioning that blows cold and power windows and a 6 way power drivers seat along with cruise control that all work well. It also has a 2 way tailgate with 3rd seat , . The power window in the tailgate also works well. This is Not a rattle trap............... it is still a very tight car.......... just what you would expect with a 44,000 mile car.....
NON-SMOKER owned. The cigarette lighter does work and is unused.
The interior shows very nice. The cloth seats are not worn or soiled. The rugs are also still very nice. I would suggest either replacing or re-glueing the cloth headliner that is drooping. The original owners manual is also in the glove box.
As far as the body goes It does have some small nicks or dings from use here and there but they are insignificant considering the age of the vehicle. I believe the paint on the car to be original and still retains a nice shine, The underside shows some light hazeing but no rust that's nasty or heavily scabby. I recently had the mid exhaust pipe and muffler replaced with new. The spare tire is still Brand new and stored in the rear compartment.
All in All,,,,,, not a museum piece but a very very pretty wagon !!!!!! someones gonna get a real "SWEET RIDE"
Any questions please email..........
I am looking for a 300 dollar pay pal deposit from the winning bidder immediately following auction end. Selling as is . This description is mearly my opinion. For piece of mind I would suggest looking at the car before bidding or send an independent inspection service to check out the car.

Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit
Mon, 04 Mar 2013We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
