Some cars spend their lives as dependable transportation. Others become part of the family. This 1996 Chevrolet Caprice falls firmly into the second category. Family-owned since new and accompanied by a detailed log book documenting its history, this one-owner sedan has traveled just 73,241 original miles while remaining remarkably well preserved. Finished in factory Dark Cherry Pearl over a Ruby Red custom cloth interior, this full-size Chevrolet is a wonderful reminder of the era when comfort, V8 power, and rear-wheel drive defined the American sedan.
Under the hood is Chevrolet's legendary 5.7L LT1 Sequential Fuel Injection V8, paired with the dependable 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission. Factory dual exhaust, a 10-bolt rear axle with 2.93:1 Posi gears, and the factory sport suspension give this 1996 Caprice a driving character that feels more athletic than its size might suggest, while power steering and anti-lock power disc brakes make every trip comfortable and confident.
Inside, the spacious cabin welcomes passengers with factory Ruby Red split-bench seating, a six-way power driver's seat, sport leather-wrapped steering wheel, air conditioning, power locks, heated power mirrors, electronic cruise control, and the original AM/FM cassette radio. Brand new tires mounted on factory 15-inch aluminum Chevrolet wheels complete the package, and a full-size spare remains in place.
If you're searching for a well-preserved 1996 Chevrolet Caprice, this sedan checks all the right boxes. Smooth, comfortable, and powered by the sought-after LT1 V8, it offers the kind of honest originality that's becoming harder to find every year.
