i sold this one 2 years ago. 91 caprice, 305 civilian car. i added the 9c1 HD cooling parts, 9c1 springs and sway bars, black wheels, ss grille, de-hood ornamented it, took the chrome off the tails. was definitely a fun car.

my 2 current fullsize(well, the caddy is well beyond fullsize). the 54 belair is my first car and ive had it forever. my dad bought it for $50 out of a field in 1979 when my mom was pregnant with me, hoping it was a boy, for a father/son project so i could have a sweet car when i was 16. it's down right now getting modern IFS, 12" disc brakes all around, and a 402/th400. the 78 sedan deville i bought last june from an old guy for $100 and its beautiful, needed some tlc and cleaning, but is absolutely rust free and has 85,000 miles, it was stored every winter, and stored in a dry garage since 1993. it has the original 425 and runs so smooth sometimes you think it stalled cause it is so well balanced and quiet.

edit: totally forgot my 71 caprice. 2 doors, grey primer with black primer stripes, dark green vinyl top, 70's puke green under the hood, rusty chrome sawblade wheels, and a 350hp 350 under the hood. my driving habits at the time ate 4 transmissions in 2 months. i need to find some pics of that beast and scan them.
