Hello everyone, just found the site and wanted to stop in and say hello. My name is Lance and I just bought ( yesterday ) a 1994 Caprice Classic Wagon with the LT1. It's got an Impala SS Grill and a nice set of wheels. I've added a few pictures here because if this forum is like any of the others everyone wants to see pics.

Thanks Jim, nice to meet you. My best friend from Kindergarten through about 6th grade was named Jim Gordon so I had to do a double take when I saw the name. Laughing

Hi Lance, sharp wagon!

If I may make a suggestion - take the grill and spraypaint the insides gloss black. Will make your front end really look nice. I did this to my tan Caprice's front grill.

I'm just outside of Flint............... Thanks Mike I sold the GTP yesterday that's what the Wagon is replacing. The Trans Am is my real toy. It's a 1995 Vert with White Leather interior. Pretty rare since GM only put the white leather in Convertibles, you could get it with Red, Blue, Green, White , or Purple exterior and they only built 505 total for the U.S. and Canada with white leather in 1995. Now my DD and my toy bot are LT1 powered.

Welcome to the forums. Smile Good group of people here.

Cool that you're close. MI has a pretty decent B-bpdy posse, but we're scatterd pretty good between Kazoo, Detroit-ish, and us up here. Either way, hopefully we can hook up at Back to the Bricks, if not before.

That looks like a wagon I've seen a bunch of times just N of Davison on M15. The dude had stickers on the back glass about being a pilot.

If you don't mind, where outside of Flint are you? I'm not in FLINT Flint, just outside to the SW as well.

Hey Mike after the urge for the OCC I bet that another urge for another Firebird is gnawing at you
about now.
Lance I personally would never own a white on white Firebird convertible but I have to say that
yours is AWESOME.You and Texas Mike have a lot to talk about.
Welcome Again

My 69 LeMans convertible had white interior, and it was a bear to keep clean, but at least it didn't sizzle your legs in shorts after being parked in the sun like a dark color would.

And while I miss my Firebird, it was just too small for me. I'm a big guy and looked a little silly in it. I don't think I want anything smaller than my Cutlass. The last year I had the Bird I'd given it to my Mom to drive...tried to keep it in the family, but she felt a little silly in it being a 62-year-old grandmother, so when gas went nuts I sold the Bird, got that Grand Prix, and gave Mom my wife's old '03 Suburban, since she hardly drives and can go a month on a tank in that Burb.

The Birds sure are pretty to look at though!

Toys-Toys!

I'm in Burton about 2 miles from Grand Blanc and about 2 miles from Davison. My car club usually has a pretty big presence at Back to the Bricks. We do a lot during the rolling cruise. Last year on Wednesday we were set up with our banners and tents down at the Grand Mall and then on Thursday we were the feature car club at RollHaven. We're supposed to be back there again this year. I'm also the lead vocalist in a band and there is a chance we might be playing a night or two during the rolling cruise at some of the places right along Saginaw. This Wagon came from Saginaw, no stickers in the rear window. I ran a carfax and I'm the 5th owner according to the report. It was originally sold in Alger Michigan and registered in West Branch. It then was in Franklin Michigan and then finally Saginaw Michigan. It's really really clean for a Michigan Car so it must have been well taken car of.

Funny that you say that because I'm going Tuesday to pick up another Laughing This one is nicer yet even though it has about 40,000 more miles on it. It's a 95 with the required mods of Impala SS Grill, Impala SS 17" wheels, has a hypertech programmer that goes with it and it's got the side trim removed and the rear bumper exchanged for a rear roll pan. I'll get pics up as soon as I get it home. I've had my first one for less than a week and I love it. Rides great, makes good power for something so heavy, fits my whole family including my puppies and it gets looks and thumbs up every time I'm out in it.

C4C was a horrible deal for anyone that loves these cars or the Sedans for that matter. They scrapped way to many of them and the saddest part for us is that they were all crushed so we can't even get the parts.
