For Sale: 1994 Chevrolet Caprice in Lutz, Florida

Is this a cool family classic? The best vehicle to haul the other toys? A cool sleeper project? A great head-turner for an affordable price? The answer to all of that is "yes." That's because this 1994 Chevrolet Caprice Wagon is an actual miles and well-respected grocery-getter. And that touch of sporty appearance is a nice reminder of the Corvette-based LT1 V8 power under the hood.

Your first impression is all that needs to sell you on this Chevy. It's a factory two-tone Dark Cherry and gray that both have a nice hint of metallic. This is suspected to be the original application, and this car has averaged about 3,300 miles annually - far less than you expect from most family wagons. So the finish retains an attractive gloss. This shine is also a great way to highlight the cool curves of the torpedo-shaped wagons. And details like the tinted windows and 17-inch Eagle Alloy wheels make for some nice sporty upgrades. But the overall appeal is just the car you can see in the sheet metal that makes this one a solid-looking classic.

These were built to be terrific long-haul cruisers with seating for up to eight. It starts with the ruby red velour seats that have a fold-down front center console to give you individual space when the middle seat isn't needed. The front seats even power adjust to the ideal comfort position. You also get great factory luxuries such as air conditioning, power windows, power locks, an AM/FM/cassette stereo, anti-lock brakes, and dual airbags. The reverse-facing third-row seat is a great piece we wish we could still get in wagons today. After all, any noise is facing the other direction. And if you want to fold both rear rows flat, you've got the perfect machine to securely haul everything from a weekend's worth of projects to the ultimate tailgate package.

Under the hood is an engine bay that looks like a time capsule. Below the factory plastic covers is the 5.7-liter LT1 V8 engine... Yes, this is the same type of fuel-injected powerplant that was available in the Corvette and Impala SS. That's why these are quickly becoming valuable favorites for tuner/sleeper cars. But the factory tuned these Caprice Classics for smooth and easy driving, and this remains refreshingly stock. That means plenty of power whenever you need it, but the kind of quiet operation that keeps you in good standing with the neighbors. This powerful and luxurious dual nature is best felt on the open road. You have a four-speed automatic transmission with a highway-ready overdrive, and the suspension is set up for grand touring. Plus, the power steering, cruise control, and power brakes with discs up front are all ideal for the long haul.

The sale comes complete with the original window sticker and the owner's manual. We already know your imagination is running wild with the places you'll go and the things you can do with this unique wagon. But since there is only one up for grabs, and it's so affordable, you might want to hurry up and call today!
