1990 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon 305 V8 from North America

Faults:

Had to replace radiator at about 80,000 miles.

Replaced it again at about 20,000 miles later (the deer needed more than a radiator though!)

Replaced the water pump at about 150000.

And last, but not least the alternator at about 235000.

Lost the rear windshied wiper blade to a car wash.

The power antenna stopped working several years ago.

The power door locks quit at about 200,000 miles (short in the passenger side door wiring that I will fix sometime)

General Comments:

The car has 237000 miles on it -- starts everyday goes forward, backward, and around corners. Driving it is like driving your living room sofa down the street comfortable, roomy and even with a lot of miles, the v-8 still pulls well and delivers reasonable gas mileage.

1990 Chevrolet Caprice Classic 5.0 Liter from North America

Faults:

When I decided to buy my caprice I took it to my mechanic:

There was a little leakage at the water pump.

Front pads needed to be replaced.

He also recommended me to replace the tie-rod ends and the belt.

Other than that, nothing else.

Body is still in good shape with original paint and almost no rust.

General Comments:

This is a very good car. It has all options except leather. Chromes still shining like day one. Although it has a high mileage engine is running great. It is quiet, powerful and is not burning any oil. (nothing is leaking also) It also has a decent gas mileage: 15-17 miles/gallon.

If you consider the money I paid:2000 CAD it is too much car for this money.

Even I buy a newer car I am planning to keep my caprice forever.

A land barge!

It has a transmission shudder when traveling with a slight load on the engine.

Roomy! Lord, all the room it has.

I like the look of it when all the seats, beside the fronts, are folded down.

Comfortable, very nicely padded seats.

I just picked up a 1990 Chevy Caprice 9C1 RARE 5.7 HO. Fuel injected 350, it has all the heavy duty stuff, it was the local fire marshals service car for the last 17 years and only has 93K on it. Its white with mint condition blue cloth interior, it looks like no one has ever even sat in it. It has the push bumpers and spotlight still on it. Merry Christmas to me...
