Hooligan 0 Posted December 29, 2012 I also thought of the Marauder -- but a brief search indicated that the survivors that are in decent shape with lower miles seem to command a premium on eBay, and I thought "price" was a consideration. Also.... http://www.caranddri...auder-road-test Very true. I wasn't sure how much price factored in, since some people buy them for the purpose of creating a poorer man's Marauder. Either way, Caprice/ImpalaSS is a better performer, and they're still out there if you look. I think the Crown Vic is a better everyday driver. I need a better job so I can buy the new Caprice when it's available. That thing hauls. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HavocMan 13 Posted December 29, 2012 I don't lnow how the Fords are, but I had a 1990 Caprice 9C1. I bought it from Jackson Township with 91k on the clock. It was a black/tan, unmarked detectives car. I bought it for $1500...ran like a top, didn't burn oil, was dead-nuts relaible too. I was at work in Linden the night Hurricane Sandy came through. When the tide surge came in, the car was submerged in 5ft of sea water. Yep - it took a freakin' HURRICANE to kill that car. The funny thing is, everyone at work was sure I could have just dropped in a new battery and changed out all the fluids and the car would have been just fine, LOL! They were probably right! It just smelled like ass - and that would never go away. That car had 306+k on it when the hurricane came through. That IS NOT a typo .... over 306,000 miles and it STILL ran like a top. That was the best $1500 I EVER spent on a car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HavocMan 13 Posted December 29, 2012 Actually, 1990 was the last year for the 'Box' style Chevy's. The cars were restyled for 1991 - 'The Whale'. Mine had a throttle body injected 350 with the roller cam (LO5) & a 700R4 transmission. Aside from the 9C1 package, the car had power windows, power door locks, remote mirrors, rear defogger, A/C .... it was really optioned nicely. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hooligan 0 Posted December 30, 2012 My favorite car was an early 80's caprice classic. Velour bench seats. It was like driving your living room around. Awesome car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
