All you need to do is click on the link in my signature, and you'll see more pics of my car than you ever wanted to.

It hasn't looked like the pic for over a year now -

It was still fairly far into 'police mode' at the time.

you can see mine in my signature

It is ugly as sin due to hitting a deer and not springing for paint yet, but here is a video you guys will like.

haha who sucks now!

Nice hole shot!

Look at the ET/MPH, holeshot had nothing to do with that win, the mudstain was just slow.

Friend has some video of my wife beating a new bolton GTO, kicker is it was only her second trip to the track to race, few videos of me beating sprayed LS1 f-bodies too.

I know I am in the minority here with the modification level of my car but I thought you guys would like that.

Still a driver though, put like 8K miles a year on it, that video was at Great Lakes Dragaway which is almost exactly 150 miles from home.

That is one sharp looking coupe you have there

I agree

Older photos, but the only difference it that the license plates are now the newer versions:

They're back in the garage, now that the snow is flying:

nice impalas, im thinking of getting another box caprice as well

Blue, I just want that garage, I have a single stall with no shed and no basement so no room to put the car in the garage.

At one point I was eyeballing a 79 bent window 2 door I thought would have been awesome with the drivetrain from the 96 in it. Same basic platform but several hundred pounds less weight.

This 94 9c1 sounds pretty decent at take off http://youtube.com/watch?v=tugDPx3airY

Just a bigger picture of whats posted in my signature. New Goodyear tires. Still thinking of getting some rally rims to put on it.

Hi all

and the heated toy box http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/ff306/463_photos/ap22029.jpg

BTW Blue Bowtie - if that is you in your picture - you look like Art Bell!

I cant belive what they do with some of these cars, im just not a fan of this type of look: http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a367/pctvman/newportboxchevy.jpg http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a367/pctvman/caprice1.jpg

But you got to admit, "Crush Proof Box" is pretty clever.

yeah i laughed about that though lol

Heres an urbandictionary.com submission of "Chevy Caprice"

"One of the original pimpmobiles. A large, rectangular car with cloth seats that resemble sofas. The 1989 white model is generally considered the ultimate Caprice. If you drive a Chevy Caprice, you're probably either a pimp, a mobster, or a senior citizen."

haha somewhat true

BTW, how rare are the 80's Impalas??? i never see them anymore, i know they are basicly identical to a caprice as well, just like the pontiac paresenne (however you spell it)

The Caprice was an upmodel Impala during the Impala's run. From 1980-1985, you could get either a Caprice Classic or an Impala. In 1986, the 'Impala' name was dropped from the mainstream Chevy B-body, replaced by a base model 'Caprice' (no Classic). The base Caprice is essentially the same as an Impala, with the exception of the header and tail panels. The 9C1 was mostly built upon the base Impala (-'85) or Caprice ('86->).

HAHA my 88 Brougham LS was white, but with the duct tape over the rust holes in the roof, all the tears in the vinyl half roof and the crooked bumpers and LOL the tire iron shaped dent in the fiberglass header panel im not seeing it as a pimpmobile

I paid a visit to the shop where im having my car painted, they had to redo it cause some parts diddnt come out right, but here it is so far with the new color, my phone cam is not that great, plus it was kinda dark. http://pictures.sprintpcs.com/i/199068103173_0_1.jpg http://pictures.sprintpcs.com/i/199068127365_0_1.jpg
