1988 Chevrolet Caprice review from North America
"A little piece of hell on wheels"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The exhaust had to be replaced.
Paint has some cracks.
New tires at 50,000.
New front end.
The headliner is held up with tacks.
General comments?
The car has never let me down.
I could strangle Chevrolet for ending the Caprice.
It does not matter what the weather is like, the Caprice will always take off like a land rocket.
If I ever get the money I will restore that car to it's original luster.
These cars could whoop any pansy Honda Civic and leave them in the dust.
I am proud to call myself a Caprice Owner and plan to be one the rest of my life.
