It's nice to see one of these that was taken care of and still totally stock. When I think of all the full size GM's that have been cut up and butchered to be pimp mobiles, it makes me sad.
Wow, great find! This will make someone happy. These were awesome NYC taxi cabs, my friend had a fleet of them running 24/7 and one of them had over 650k miles on it before the motor gave up.
Brings back memories. I took drivers ed on one of these cars. Interior exactly the same as I remember. Me in the drivers seat, my shop teacher and 3 other students in the back seat. Shop teacher had us driving to his favorite restaurants and doing errands with it lol!
I just got myself a 1990 rust free 80,230 original miles that was garage kept its entire life. Been to one dealership and one mechanic for over 15 tears for regular service. Mine is just the basic trim with crank windows as the previous owner didn't care for all the gizmos and gadgets. Besides for the price I got it for I can't complain. More often than not you see them tore up or a lot of silly stuff done to them. It's nice to see a clean one left alone.
looks like it just rolled off the factory floor ! truly a time capsule from a great bygone era. these boxy big body american cars are what got me falling in love with american cars back when i was just a little kid only seeing those in movies. ii still love them today and anytime i see one of them i can't help but smile. greetings from germany :)
It's a carburetor 4 Barrel Quadrajet with a lectronic choke it actually runs very good but the control mixture screws are controlled I rather have the one carburetor that's more manual where I can be the boss
A friend of mine had an 87 caprice very similar to this one. It’s a shame he never took care of it, because if he did he probably still have it. I think he said that by the time he wrecked it, it had 250,000 miles on it or something like that.
Fuck I miss my white 89 Caprice so damn much. So reliable and solid built to last. I crashed it in Chicago coming back from a party drunk and high...Good ol days.
I always liked the box look! Even though the 91+ caprices became some of the fastest with the LT1 in 96, they lost some of their class. I always liked the Caprice emblem as well.
Fueleconomy.gov says 23 highway. I'd rather pay for that and have a car this size, than get 35+ mpg in some sort of soulless ecobox that I hit my head getting in and out of.
My mom had a 99 caprice black and red velvet interior with half moon rims and got it for about 3k low miles, she says that was the best car she ever had. Steer good so is all the room and everything else!
@bahasad 1) most era's don't exactly end until after a new era has begun (ie. my dad told me that the 70's didn't end until 1982, and that the 80's didn't end until 1991) 2) it's rated at 170 hp and 255 lb. ft. of tq.
2:07 - The 1990 version was as 'rounded' as the edges of the old 1977 B-Body Caprice/Impala would ever get, lol! and at 1:40 that totally mid-70s dashboard could hopelessly never be modernized, even with the stereo with graphic EQ in the center stack. GM was testing the public's reaction to certain previews of the totally re-skinned B-body(the aero composite headlamps, unified tail bezels, the subtle vertical curve of the grille proper, the flush fit of said grille and headlights into the nose cap, etc.) that had already been finalized in Detroit, and would finally reveal to the public in late summer 1990 for the 1991 model year. Overall, the 1988-1990 Caprice was getting, in my opinion, very close to the contemporary Cadillac DeVille or Fleetwood in terms of roofline and interior luxuries, except in price. Except maybe for leather seats, you could have all the Cadillac goodies - premium stereo, auto climate, landau roof, etc(not all on this subject car of course) - for $5,000 less than the price of an equivalent Caddy in those days.
Lots of elements here remind me of our old family Mercury Marquis...rectangle speedo, half-cylinder dome light, handles on the doors, rear ashtrays, column automatic, square window switches, boxy body, square seatbelt buckles, square lights...
@CHUUMPASS Haha, greetings from Berlin. Its pretty much exactly the same here. I love those cars (especially the 91 Caprice and other last gen b-bodies, but all cars of that era in general), a shame to see so many of them on the junkyard now. Im hopefully able to buy one in the near future and keep it nice and clean as long as possible. Atleast one or two of them will be saved then.
My grandfather had a 78 Caprice - still runs. I'm surprised they kept the overall design for as long as they did - you don't hear of a design sticking around for 10 years much these days, notable exceptions being the PT Cruiser and VW New (1998-2011) Beetle
the 1977-1990 Chevrolet caprice was assembled in Arlington, Texas, United States Oshawa, Ontario, Canada South Gate, California, United States Detroit, Michigan, United States - Clark Avenue Flint, Michigan, United States Caracas, Venezuela
A friend of mine is gonna sell me his. He put a 1973 stingray corvette motor in it. Everything is rebuilt and new except the body which is still in decent shape including the interior
Beautiful beautiful beautiful car. So much personality to this car I fucking love it. Hardly any plastic used in these, the complete opposite of all the econo-shitboxes of the 21st century.
Kyle are you still using your Canon SD1400IS? I am thinking about picking one up today. Is it easy to upload videos to RUclips from that camera? Do you still like it?
@foxboy1618 I had a 1985 buick century as first car and today My daily driver is a 1993 caprice classic and I can't describe how much there's a huge difference of size between these cars. And box chevys where probably bigger than my caprice haha
Beautiful car man.I love them 87'-90' Chevy Caprices.This one is real clean and fresh
This is still a dream car for me 😔
This is probably the last Caprice Chevrolet ever built that had luxury and the best styling.
And i have one orginal love caprices
Some loved it, some hated it. There's really no such thing as "the best" of something, everyone has their own opinions.
@@dave_riotsDoes the Top go down on this car?
I love how its just like a huge couch on wheels.
It's nice to see one of these that was taken care of and still totally stock. When I think of all the full size GM's that have been cut up and butchered to be pimp mobiles, it makes me sad.
Milford Civic no such thing as a pimp mobile!! That’s something you know who, made up to attack people of color.
@@autokronicles8160 You are a racist
cadiilac fleetwoods and the chevy caprices were the last big body box cars from GM.
this is a nice piece of history
nice car! that would be a great buy for someone. Screw new cars, this is all the car you need right here.
There is something truly amazing about this car!
I love the way these old boats rock when you rev them.
wish I could find one that looks this good here in Canada.
God how I miss the early 90s
My dream American car ❤
What a car !!!! Everything about that car is amazing !!!!
Wow, great find! This will make someone happy.

I enjoyed watching your video 🤩🤩 my dad used to have one ☝️ I also noticed this car and the Cadillac Brogham both have rear fual caps
Absolutely Beautiful!

Back In the day I Used to Play Gran Theft Auto San Andreas Just To Drive This Car !
Always loved this style and the one that came after this.
what a lovely radio!
Hi Kyle .I was really surprise to see that the 90 Caprice has a carburetor .I thought by 1990 it would have been fuel injection .March 10 2019!!
It's a carburetor 4 Barrel Quadrajet with a lectronic choke it actually runs very good but the control mixture screws are controlled I rather have the one carburetor that's more manual where I can be the boss
@@jonhsmith2706sounds like you have one yourself. if you do reply please i need to ask some questions :)
@@maf-mp7lf im here whats up.
@@jonhsmith2706 hey man i'm about to buy a 1990 and idk what to expect, like is everything fixable and stuff like that!
Its not a carburetor, it has throttle body fuel injection.
I like Caprices, but the A-Body will always be my favorite GM car line. I look forward to the day you upload a video of a Celebrity, Kyle.
i love this car
That car is CLEAN inside and out!
Awesome! Love those older box style Caprices! It's nice that you keep finding them in such good shape! Great vid as always Kyle

You gots to learn to drive drunk better man!
LilMerk205, what a good advice man!!! LOL
I´ve a 1990 Caprice C91, white, wich I use as a Taxi in Reykjavik, Iceland, great cars.
Fantastic. I will look out for you if I go there. What a great novelty cab
I always liked the box look! Even though the 91+ caprices became some of the fastest with the LT1 in 96, they lost some of their class. I always liked the Caprice emblem as well.
Wow very large trunk . Love these classic cars
1990 Caprices are the only models with door mounted belts, to note.
nice !
this is the most cleanest classic caprice i have ever seen

That is impossible since 1996 was the last model year.
***** really? That's what it probably was. But the registration said 99
***** no it's not the caprice was still being sold in other countries after 96 so it depends upon the region.
others says dont (accélère ) dont puch the GAS pedal when the engine is cold !!!!
love this car thank you.i think best years of g.m is between 1982 and 1992
never gets old
Sooo many young guys in my city drive box caprices. I would like one myself actually.
Looooovvvvveeee that starter motor sound
Love it 😍

I just lovvvee it, partly cuz it was T1000 cop car in Terminator 2 famous movie of Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1991...
did know the seat belts buckled in extends automatically when the door opens.
That's how you can tell it is a 1990 model.
This car is awesome, just look at the car when it passes 1:28
One of the OG videos
Love this car!
i LOVE the horn sound - it's like the car from homer simpson haha
love caprese 1990 ❤️

its just ...... BEAST!!!

Is this car still around jw ?
@@mattbartolovich8228 the one my grandfather had? I’m afraid not.
@@rml695 car heaven?
Why don’t they make cars like this anymore?
Chevy Runs Deep!
@randomrazr Fleetwoods were on the D body until 1993, when they were moved to the B platform. Basically a stretched version of the B body.
Yeah I love those classic lines
Heck ya. I remember riding with my grandma and great aunt to sizzler and to sears next to buy sears laundry detergent
يقوطر ماء من النظافه ، يارب ترزقني بواحد مثله 💔💔💔💔
ي حي ولد البلد وش تسوي هنا 🤣🤣🤣
That is one nice car
أخ بس راحت ايامك يلكابرس:(

Ah. It's a fantastic radio call-in show on NPR, but I listen to it as a podcast.
OMG
This Engine Is So Clean Like New
Beautiful antique

nice classic!
@aruhs91 The power windows and locks on my 1987 Chevrolet Camaro Sport Coupe still work flawlessly. The full power hatch still works too.
يا الله ذكرني بأيام الشباب
A friend of mine is gonna sell me his. He put a 1973 stingray corvette motor in it. Everything is rebuilt and new except the body which is still in decent shape including the interior
i grew up with these cars in they were so popular in Edmonton ab during 1990s
this is going to be my first car . same year and every thing.
This Monday I were in a car like this. Prety good, but a bit dusty. I love to find extrange cars in my country
hoping to get ahold of one of these as my first car sometime not too far in the future
I gotta 86 Caprice Classic Brougham with 74k miles on it if you're interested
fuel injected or carb'd?
Got me that same car, just as a wagon and 2 years older but I love it just the same, mines got only 46,000 miles on it though
Love how this car is a 1990 but it could be mistaken for an 82.
Atmos or a 76
@Zohles You know? I flat forgot those existed. LOL (not really, but I did blank on them for a moment).
الله يرزقني مثله ي ناس برقهام داخليه عنابي كنب
يارب ترزقنا واحد زيه وكنب عنابي
i grew up with these cars
Beautiful beautiful beautiful car. So much personality to this car I fucking love it. Hardly any plastic used in these, the complete opposite of all the econo-shitboxes of the 21st century.
The good old days
Kyle are you still using your Canon SD1400IS? I am thinking about picking one up today. Is it easy to upload videos to RUclips from that camera? Do you still like it?
Love it
I have the same exact engine in my Trans Am... but its a 1991 motor... runs strong... WIDE OPEN MANIFOLDS... for now
Nice, clean a power ⚡ car
These are very nice to have if you treat them right.
i would luv to have this car
i love that car very beatehful
Question, is the trunk release button just below the headlight switch? My 1985 it is still in the glove box.
1990, the last year for this body before a complete redesign for 1991
@foxboy1618 I had a 1985 buick century as first car and today My daily driver is a 1993 caprice classic and I can't describe how much there's a huge difference of size between these cars. And box chevys where probably bigger than my caprice haha
No the box is a bit smaller than your 93
and by the way those wheel covers where not standard, this disc with the black dot where the standard wheel covers
@aruhs91 Well I am glad mine work. The rest of the parts on the car are going to need replacing so it kinda spares me the expense.
I am also a fan of saabkyle04
