1987 Chevrolet Caprice brougham LS review from North America
"The best car I ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Catalytyic converter was bad, power antenna did not work, the alternater went out at 100,000.i replaced the front suspension, just to give me piece of mind. i replaced the rear brake drums,and installed crossed drilled rotors for better cooling.
General comments?
It drove like a cadillac, even after I lowered it 2",it was a very comfortable car and I regret selling it.
