The Chevy Caprice was the most popular model in the United States in the Sixties and Seventies. It was a full-sized car and offered in a variety of body styles. Produced between 1965 and 1996, and then again from 2000 until 2017, the Caprice is remembered to this day as a mainstay of American automobile culture. It’s also been immensely popular as a police car, more prominently on the silver screen than in real life of course, given its role in numerous, tire-squealing chases. Today’s 1968 Chevrolet Caprice Restomod is from a little earlier in the Caprice’s story, as it’s a first-generation example. However, it’s a fine example that’s up for grabs in Pittsburg, California, with 67,332 miles on its 327ci V8. Join us as we delve deeper into its essence and discover why it’s a one-of-a-kind.
Exterior and Interior
This 1968 Chevrolet Caprice is a two-door coupe, one of the three body styles offered for the first generation. The car looks long and low, probably because it sits lower than stock. In fact, we’re led to believe that there’s air suspension at play here, allowing you to play lowrider to your heart’s content. The car’s Abalone White paint job features blue and purple flake for some extra depth and shimmer, as well as some lovely custom graphics on the hood and along the sides. And naturally, there’s ample chrome adorning this Sixties symbol of Americanism. The Aqua Blue interior of this 1968 Chevrolet Caprice looks pretty stock at first glance. It’s only when you look further that some hints of modernity, such as the dash-mounted quartz clock and the remote control for the air suspension system become apparent. The car is a four-seat affair, so you can take up to three passengers with you for a smooth ride around town. Then, when you get to your party destination, you pop the trunk and are greeted with a banging sound system that incudes two subwoofers, multi-colored lighting and several amplifiers.
Engine
Power comes from a small-block Chevrolet V8 paired with an automatic transmission and column shifter, delivering smooth, easy cruising consistent with the Caprice’s luxury-oriented design. The engine bay shows chrome dress-up components and updated ignition wiring, suggesting routine maintenance and light personalization over the years. Equipped with power steering and power drum brakes, the car is set up for comfortable street driving rather than aggressive performance. Overall, this Caprice represents a solid example of a late-1960s Chevrolet full-size coupe that balances originality, mild customization, and classic American cruising appeal.
Few automobiles capture the spirit of 1970s American luxury cruising quite like the Chevrolet Caprice Classic Convertible. As Chevrolet’s flagship full-size passenger car, the Caprice combined comfort, style, and effortless V8-powered motoring in a package designed for open-road enjoyment. This 1975 Chevrolet Caprice Classic Convertible shows just 72,653 miles and presents as a wonderfully preserved example finished in a timeless red and white color combination. With its spacious cabin, power-operated convertible top, and unmistakable full-size proportions, this Caprice offers buyers the opportunity to own one of the last great American convertibles of the era. Whether displayed at local shows or enjoyed on weekend drives, it embodies the relaxed luxury and presence that made the Caprice nameplate so popular.

The Chevy Caprice was introduced in 1965 as Chevy’s full-size family offering. It ran until 1996, as a sensible and dependable transporter for countless American families, but was resurrected in 2000 for a further seventeen years, made by GM subsidiary Holden in Australia. The Caprice has also seen some use as a police car, and not just in the United States, but overseas as well. So, it’s a nameplate with some history and legacy attached to it. Today, we have a 59,057-mile, third-generation 1985 Chevrolet Caprice Classic for sale from Stone Mountain, Georgia. With its deep maroon plush velour interior, Pioneer head unit and V8 power, it’s a definite classic car for those who don’t run after more common models.
This 2002 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 SS Convertible represents the final model year of the fourth-generation Camaro, and this example combines the desirable WU8 SS Performance / Appearance Package with open-top cruising and LS1 power. Showing approximately 133,836 miles, it is finished in Bright Rally Red over a Neutral leather interior with a black convertible soft top. Factory SS equipment includes the composite hood with air scoop, forced-air induction, SS rear decklid spoiler, performance handling package, low-restriction dual-outlet exhaust, and Zexel-Torsen differential, while aftermarket wheels, an open-element air intake, smoked taillights, and red-painted brake calipers give this car a more personalized enthusiast look.
This 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe 2LT Z51 is especially compelling for one simple reason: it shows just 790 miles. That exceptionally low mileage is paired with one of the strongest early-C8 configurations, combining Blade Silver Metallic paint, an Adrenaline Red interior, the Z51 Performance Package, Magnetic Selective Ride Control, front lift with memory, performance exhaust, and the Engine Appearance Package. Carbon Flash Metallic full-length dual racing stripes and bright red brake calipers add even more visual impact, making this a highly optioned and remarkably low-mile example of the first model year for the mid-engine Corvette.
This 1959 Chevrolet Corvette Restomod takes the unmistakable shape of the first-generation Corvette and backs it with a substantially upgraded performance package. Showing approximately 37,998 miles, this C1 is finished in Hot Rod Satin Black over a black leather interior and includes a body-colored removable hardtop. Its 350ci V8 is equipped with FAST individual-runner electronic fuel injection and an 8-stack velocity trumpet setup, while a Muncie 4-speed manual, 4.11 rear gears, front disc brakes, and American Racing wheels give the car a much more performance-focused character than a stock 1959 Corvette.
This 1967 Lincoln Continental Convertible is one of the most distinctive luxury cars of its era, combining four-door convertible bodywork, rear-hinged rear doors, and unmistakable slab-sided styling with big-block V8 power. Showing approximately 70,566 miles, this example is finished in Platinum Metallic over a reupholstered black leather interior and is fitted with an aftermarket black convertible soft top. Its 462ci V8, C6 automatic, power accessories, air conditioning, and updated sound system give it the kind of effortless cruising character enthusiasts expect from a full-size Continental.
This 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu Restomod “SS Tribute” takes the classic second-generation Chevelle shape and pairs it with a much more serious performance package. Showing approximately 9,311 miles, it is finished in House of Kolor Kandy Burgundy and features SS badging, a cowl-induction-style hood, and a muscular stance that fits the car’s upgraded drivetrain. Under the hood sits a 468ci V8 reported at 500 hp and 560 lb-ft of torque, backed by a Tremec TKO 600 5-speed manual. A 12-bolt Positraction rear end, Moser axles, Richmond 4.10 gears, Hotchkis sway bars, and additional suspension upgrades make this Chevelle far more than a cosmetic tribute.
Cadillac’s full-size luxury sedans of the late 1970s were built around comfort, presence, and unmistakable American styling, and this 1978 Cadillac Sedan deVille delivers that character in classic fashion. Showing approximately 61,669 miles, this example is finished in the particularly striking combination of Canyon Copper Firemist Metallic over an Antique Medium Saddle interior, complemented by a contrasting white padded vinyl roof. From its long body and chrome detailing to its V8 power and traditional rear-wheel-drive layout, this Sedan deVille offers the kind of relaxed, imposing cruising experience that defined Cadillac during the era.
