The Malaise Era of cars only uses its name jokingly now. We can now
see these as the last stand of large American cruisers that seemed
blunt and unashamed of their size. And this 1978 Chevrolet Caprice
Classic shows you just how sturdy those lines can be because it has
a look of a low-mileage survivor, right down to the glow of the
factory-applied metallic red paint. We don't have the full
background on this one, but you can just tell there was a barn
find/storage history to this car (it even still has its CB radio
and antenna!) So it's a true time capsule that represents a rapidly
rising era of vintage cars.
HIGHLIGHTS
*Five-digit odometer is believed to show full/actual low
mileage
*Factory Carmine Red Metallic has an impressive shine to highlight
the exceptional body panels
*Chrome bumpers and a white vinyl top are pure 1970s premium
*305 cubic-inch V8 with four-barrel carburetor on top
*Three-speed automatic transmission
*Carmine Red interior is a time capsule
*Huge space to spread out inside
*Factory air conditioning (needs service)
*Extra clean trunk that loves golf clubs
*New tires (2022)
*Impressive documentation with the original window sticker and
dealer invoice
This car may remind you of the back seat you grew up in, or you may
just be looking to rule the next Radwood event. We just like it
because it's the kind of plush-riding V8 cruiser that we just don't
see anymore. So if you already know why you love this time capsule
Caprice Classic then you know you may never see another one like
this again. Call today!!!
