This 1992 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon is an exceptionally clean, low mileage, original condition vehicle that has been meticulously maintained during my ownership. Being a California vehicle all it's life it has ZERO rust (note pictures). It is equipped with the tow package, A/C (blows ice cold), rear facing jump seat, dual opening tailgate (folds flat and opens sideways) and power everything (windows, dual power seats, cruise control, door locks, electric antenna, rear window opener, etc). It has been fueled with 91 Octane only and receives oil changes every 5,000 miles with Pennzoil Semi-synthetic. It rides smoothly, steers tight and straight down the road and brakes confidently with power front disc brakes. It's also extremely quiet and recently passed California smog with ease
(1 month ago). The engine is the optional 5.7-liter 350 cu-in V8 that runs perfectly, burns no oil, and delivers a solid 16 mpg around town and around 23 mpg on the interstate. The 4L60 4-speed automatic transmission also shifts perfectly and doesn't leak a drop. I am the third owner of this wagon purchasing it with 58,248 miles on the odometer from the first owners grandson. It now has 80,400 miles with the majority coming from interstate driving.
The interior of this wagon is in exceptional condition for it's age. I would rate it a solid 8.5 out of 10. Front and rear seats are extremely comfortable and still offer good support, as does the rear facing jump seat. The rear seats also fold flat allowing for cargo space that rivals most pickup trucks. For example a 4'x8' sheet of plywood lies flat.
The exterior exhibits normal wear and tear for a older wagon with a few small parking lot dings, but is honestly in outstanding shape. The tires are Kumho Solus KS21 in size 235/70/15 and are also in good shape.
Recent service items completed within the last 10,000 miles include:
- Complete brake job front and rear, with full fluid flush, new front rotors and pads, new master cylinder and reservoir and new shoes.
- Front wheel bearings repacked with new seals
- New idler arm
- Full transmission flush and service
- New Monroe shocks front/rear
- New water pump
- New fuel pump w/ new fuel filter
- Brand new radiator with built in oil/transmission cooler
(tow package option)- New air filter
Mechanically, this Caprice Wagon needs nothing except a new driver and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it across country at a moments notice. The only items that do need addressing
(if you choose) are the rear windows
(the track grommets need replacing) and the rear defroster is inoperable. Aside from that you are looking at one of the cleanest GM B-body long-roof wagons out there.
I encourage you to ask as many questions as you wish, as you will get honest answers I assure you.
The wagon is located in the San Francisco Bay Area: PRICE $5,500.00
