1990 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Wagon 4-door 5.0l on 2040-cars

Year:1990 Mileage:45000 Color: paint still shines and presents great withy the wood trim
Location:

Adams, New York, United States

Adams, New York, United States

This is an original car with 45,200 miles since the first owner purchased it in 1990. He kept a written diary from the day he picked up the car at the dealership. It was first a GM executive car for the first 3,000 miles but was titled new to the owner who purchased it. Compared to these wagons which are left, this has to be near the top, though it is not perfect. Car presents awesome and gets a ton or comments. The best way to describe it over the internet is to list the pros and cons for you to be the judge. Car runs, drives and shifts excellent. It has a 307 V-8 engine with automatic transmission. From that I can tell, it has every available option noted in the 1990 sales brochure also included. It also comes with the official GM maintenance manual. At 11,000 miles GM replaced the transmission under warranty noted in the paperwork. Therefore the transmission only has about 33,000 miles on it. Seats and interior are great with no tears etc. It was never smoked in as the lighter is still new. It will eventually need a new headliner as it's starting to come apart from the foam in some areas. Everything works including the power antenna with the exception that the right channel on the radio goes in and out. Not uncommon for these old Delco radios which were crap to begin with. The A/C works but needs a charge and has yet to be converted from r-12 to r-134a. I have the kit to convert it which will also be included. The exterior paint still shines and presents great withy the wood trim. However, there are various marks here and there typical of a 24 year old car - SEE PICS. There are a couple spots under the wood trim which have bubbles under them but have not broken through. - AGAIN SEE PICS. I bought a new roll of paneling to repair these spots but have not done it yet. If the car sells, the roll would go with it. The undercarriage is solid and car was under coated when it was new as documented in the paperwork. I have reason to believe the tires are original based on the fact there is not paperwork to state otherwise. They are Uniroyal Tiger Paws very popular for the time this was produced. Mechanically brakes, spark plugs were done around 39,000 miles. I just recently put 4 new shocks and added spring spacers at the base of the spring to raise the rear to OEM specs. It also has a brand new exhaust from the engine back including the converter. This car is a blast to drive and presents well. You can pick it apart here and there if you are overly fussy but overall it is in great shape for the type of family of which most were drove into the ground. Autocheck scores a 48 out of a range of 9-27 for the average vehicle. This was the last year for this style and in 1990, 12,305 wagons were produced. At time of listing, car has 45,198 miles. It is currently registered and inspected so if it sells pleased be advised the mileage will be slightly higher.  If you have any questions or would like to see it in person, please do so BEFORE bidding. Thanks.

GM sweetens military discount for Buick, Chevy and GMC

Sun, 06 Oct 2013

American servicemen and women interested in a new vehicle from Chevrolet, Buick or GMC now have a bit more incentive to head down to their local dealer, as General Motors has announced plans to improve its military discount program.
The new GM Military Discount Program offers eligible consumers a new Chevy, Buick or GMC at invoice pricing, which in some cases can take very large chunks out of a car's retail price. When factored in with other incentives, most of which are available with the Military Discount, the bargains are thick on the ground for members of the US armed forces.
GM's Retail Sales and Marketing Support general manager, Chuck Thomson, said, "GM has long supported the military and military families, and we hope this simplified and enhanced discount will show our appreciation for their service and help make it easier for them to own one of our great new vehicles." The program is open to all active duty and reserve members in the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, National Guard and Coast Guard, as well as veterans that have been out of the service for less than a year. Military retirees and their spouses are also eligible for the discount.

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.
