1989 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1 review from North America
"9C1 best bang for the buck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went on it with 116,000 miles on it (second rebuild 1st. by police).
Oil line loosened.
Now needs new "Green Silicon Hoses".
General comments?
This car is an excellent blend between performance and comfort. The car after years of police service and two other owners still runs excellent. G80 limited slip is awesome. K&N Filter is the only performance upgrade.
This car is the best.
9C1...best bang for the buck.
