Turn off the nav system, crumple up that MapQuest printout, and let's find out where the next random turn may take us!

Nov 23, 2008 - Ship Ahoy!

Another blast from the past, from that era when you could tell what a car was at a glance. We're sort of getting back towards that now on the styling side, but for a while there not only was it hard to tell what year a car was, sometimes it was hard to identify the make when everything looked like a Taurus of a different size.

This is a 1975 Chevrolet Caprice Classic convertible, Chevy's last big convertible. 8,349 of them were made. It was reasonably priced for the day at $5113, which included rich upholstery, major power assists, and a 175-horsepower 400 V-8 linked to Turbo Hydramatic transmission.

The whitewalls and white convertible top easily caught my camera's eye!

Ah the big classics. In 1976 I remember my parents bought a new Buick LeSabre.It was a maroon color, similar to this one and had the four headlights. When we got it home it didnt fit in the garage.
