1988 Chevrolet Caprice Brougham review from North America
"I can live in it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought the car for $700 I replaced the exhaust, put in a bigger engine a 350 out of a 1993 caprice fuel injected I got the engine for $500. The car needs a paint job which I plan 2 get in the summer I also have the original hub caps, but plan to buy rims.
General comments?
This car I bought for winter driving I own a Lexus which is a remarkable car. However the caprice has its perks like a roomy interior, safe ride and since I have the 350 in there the power is not too bad I haven't lost againts any ricers yet. my buddy raced me on thr road in his mercedes ML which I beat and laughed at him cause my $700 car beat his expensive truck.
