1976 Chevrolet Caprice Estate

400 V8. 109k miles. A/C, 3rd seat and power tailgate. Needs many more and better pics, but he may not know what he has pricing this is at $6500. That last '76 Caprice Estate went for more than double that price this past spring, and this one appears to have the correct original wood grain. This one could be a real find.

That would be a steal! Plus, being an "LA" car, its probably rust free! PLUS says no reasonable offer refused... may take even less.

 

Exactly!

 

Contacted him.......now what to do with this 73 I just bought

 

Let us know what you find out, Swanny. I'm dying to see more

 

Just put my 74 Caprice 2 door up for sale, just spent $3,300 on the 73 Caprice Wagon so my fun money fund doesn't have enough in it for this wagon. So something has to go. Waiting for more pictures

 

One goofy thing about this ad is that the Cadillac is supposed to be the "star" of this car collection

1973 Cadillac Coupe DeVille $12,500- 43,639 miles, Original owner, White Interior, owner had car painted at the factory a Buick Maroon Color, Guaranteed to be the only Cad this color in existance, This car is like new, always kept inside.
Buick Color, Guaranteed to be the only one this color

yet there is not a single pic of the Coupe De Ville.

But anyway, the fact that he labels the Caprice Estate as just a '76 Chevy wagon indicates that he doesn't know that he has one of the most sought-after GM clamshells.

Good luck, Swanny!

 

I was wanting to see that Caddy also! My grandmother had a 73 Coupe de Ville also, hers was Gold colored, talk about a whale,lol! The poor 472 in it had problems getting out of its own way, nothing like the 472 that was in her prior 68 Calais coupe.

 

lol, yeah, the wagon is "just another wagon" to him. lol.

Good luck Swanny! Your in the same boat I am in... I would love to have that '73 Grand Safari for sale, but no "fun money", lol.

 

If It had a a full power gate you might not have a problem perhaps!

I am interested in this 76 so I have contacted him as well.

 

He sent me additional pictures. However, the quality of the poctures is poor. Car is loaded with all options, including power seat. But he did not send me any pictures of the interior. Says car has been stored inside its entire life

 

Wow! Sounds very promising!

 

Currently negotiating a price. Should hopefully have a deal hammered out within the next couple hours. Anyone need a 2 door Caprice, or a 73 Caprice wagon. LOL

 

Congratulations!!!

Great to know that this very special wagon is going to a good home!

 

Well it's NOT done yet, I am trying to finalize the deal. But nothing is done until payment has been sent
