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.
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.
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.

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.

This makes it one of the most well-known and easily remembered brands under Chevy’s umbrella. Today, we’ve got a 1984 Chevrolet Caprice that comes from the third generation of the nameplate. Introduced in 1977, the Gen 3 Caprice saw downsizing to the midsize category, and sported new styling by Bill Mitchell. It was offered as a coupe, station wagon and sedan, the last of which is what this car is. With a mere 48,923 miles on the odometer, this Columbia, Tennessee-based Caprice is a great modern classic to add to your collection, or start a collection with.

The Chevrolet Camaro, 1967-2024. Yes, Chevy’s pony car is no more. The sixth generation Camaro said goodbye in 2024, after a fine production run that saw countless enthusiasts get their speed and power fix. Along the way, there have been some fine variants, such as the Z/28. The brainchild of Vince Piggins, the Z/28 was basically a turn-key racer. It was offered to buyers on the down low; there was no sales literature for it. That’s what we have today, a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro for sale from Tustin, California. This car has received a fair bit of refreshment. Now, it packs a Blueprint 383ci Stroker V8 under the hood, paired with the famed Muncie "Rockcrusher" 4-speed box. But wait, there’s more.
