1994 caprice 9c1 plus entire inventory of new and used parts. After 2 years of fighting the notion, i have very reluctantly decided that i will attempt to sell my 1994 caprice 9c1 that i have owned since 2001. The usual reasons like most red blooded car guys when they come to terms that life changes over time and so the priorities must change with it. I will spare posting all of the photos and all of the information on this car to save on space but if interested please email me. In summary, this is a native rust free texas car built in arlington, tx and began life as a texas highway patrol car until the year 2000. It still has the dps asset number in the door jamb. I don't know who the second owner was but they painted the car pearl white and halfway attempted an impala ss clone with some terrible after market wheels. I bought the car one year later in 2001 at a car dealership in san antonio with 105,000 miles on it. It was super clean and had an immaculate interior. One hole only in the roof. Texas dps as a rule does not install spotlights on their vehicles. Engine is an lt1 with the gu4 3. 08 open diff. I found out quickly why the car was traded in so quickly after it left dps. Within days of buying it, the trans lost 3-4 gear. The dealership paid for the rebuild. After 7 rebuilds by two different shops in 9 months and some fierce letter writing, a brand new gm service replacement transmission assembly 4l60e srta was installed in 2002 (117,000) at a cost that was split 50/50 by me and the dealer. This trans has been in the car ever since and has performed flawlessly and still does to this day. Fast forward to 2011 (211,000) the car had served me well as a daily driver for the past 10 years . I always thought i would keep this car indefinitely and started the process of restoring it. I started buying up nos gm parts by the droves back in 2009 as many were getting discontinued. New steering wheel, new lights, trim, wheels, rubber, all of the police specific 9c1 upgraded parts and too many more to list here. In 2011 i removed the original lt1 engine that was still running like a top by the way but leaking oil out of every possible place but the valve covers. I purchased a "stock replacement" lt1 engine from golen engines on the east coast, they are know for their specialty in the ltx and lsx worlds. This engine has the aluminum gm heads and slightly more aggressive cam than the b body. I installed it and reused no parts from the old engine at all except the intake manifold. New opti, new accessories, new exhaust manifolds, new injectors. This engine was tuned on a local dyno with 250 rwhp and 315 ft/lbs to the wheels. Tuner figures 20 percent loss through the drive line for approx. 315 hp 393 ft/lbs crank. It is currently tuned for 91+ octane. Power Windows✔ CD Player
