1967 Chevrolet Caprice Description

I sold this car 15 years ago to a collector. It is a 74,000 mile car that was obviously well cared for. I just looked up our old notes. It was a one owner car from California until 2004 with original title. It won a gold spinner at Chevy Vette Fest in 04 scoring 988 points. It was also in a 2 page feature in Chevy Performance magazine. We no longer have the documentation.
EXTERIOR: The body and paint is over 10 years old and I think it's in excellent condition. Look down both long sides and they are straight. The gaps around all the panels are square and flush. It's smooth along the bottom of the car. The metal flake is laid out evenly, clear coat is polished smooth and glossy. There is a touch up on top of the rear 1/4 I did not see in the video. Overall the trim is in excellent condition. Upfront the grill, bumper, bezels are excellent. Has bumper guards front and back. The stainless trim around the windows, wheel wells and rockers are excellent. The rain gutter on the driver side does he have some dimples. Has bowtie mirrors on each side. In back the bumper, taillights and trim is all very nice. There is a touch up in the paint on top of the passenger quarter panel. Jambs are really clean, painted very nicely. Weatherstrips were replaced. It rolls on a set of 15x8 Corvette rally wheels with nice trim and radial redline tires.
INTERIOR: It has a very well cared for, plush comfortable interior. The seat doesn't feel broken down at all, it has good cushion. It's original fabric with all the buttons is real nice. Original seatbelts front and back. The door panels match the seats and they're completely straight, not warped, nicked or beat up. Has factory power windows. The wood grain trim is excellent. I'm sitting here looking at a mint dash area. The dash pad, heater controls, gauges, knobs etc are in excellent condition. Down on the floor the carpet is real nice. Interior lights work. The trim pieces like the kick panels, moldings, visors are all very nice. Headliners is tight as a drum. The mesh speaker tray is excellent and has a rear window defogger.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Smooth running 350 motor with a few upgrades including aluminum intake, Edelbrock carb with electric choke and HEI ignition. The motor itself is clean, you can tell it was apart when it was painted. There is an upgraded aluminum radiator and auxiliary fan to keep it cool. and an auxiliary electric fan. It features power steering and power brakes. The motor compartment is very tidy throughout, the squirters are hooked up, the battery is bolted down and has a cut off switch. Bottom of the hood is painted semi gloss black, has insullation, the hinges are the proper gray color. The metal is all smooth and clean.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Completely lined in the gray felt and has a tire cover over the spare. It also includes the jack. The bottom of the trunk lid and the jamb are painted very well. It has soft weatherstrip.
UNDERSIDE: The starter and oil pan look new. It was updated with a 700R-4 overdrive automatic. Has stainless Borla mufflers. The rear shocks look recent. New straps holding the fuel tank, probably dropped the tank to replace sending unit. Overall looks to be very solid original metal.
I got a good impression of this car- straight, tidy, well cared for.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
