| Along my trip to pickup the 95 parts Caprice wagon I ran into a deal I could not refuse. First here is how I got into this whole mess of cars. A few weeks ago I found the 95 Caprice dirt cheap on CL with only 90k on it. Called the guy and he couldn't show it until the weekend, which worked for me because he was in NY. I was planning to go there early in the morning and buy the car and get it towed back and use it as a beater. The following Friday I get an email from the seller saying he sold the car to someone who just needed the engine. This guy had apparently been passing by and inquired about the car and paid cash for it. The seller did give this guy my name and number and said I might wants parts off it, all I really cared about was that it was a tow pack car and wanted the posi rear. I get a call and he offered to sell me the shell less the engine and tranny for cheap, less than scrap value. I got a call a few days ago saying I can pick it up. He also mentioned he had another wagon and would make me a great deal on the pair I get down there and he shows me the good car, which is a 94 DCM RMW with tan guts, 168k, and its a tow pack. The car needs a good cleaning, but runs and drives great and has no rust except for the bottom of the spare well has a half dollar sized hole in it. He gave me a great deal and I drove it home while my friend trailered the caprice home. Word of caution: NEVER tow an engine-less wagon on a uhaul auto transport with the front loaded first! The weight is not evenly distributed at all and it makes the trailer whip hard at speeds over 40mph. Lynol did the hauling for me and said it was a hell of a terrifying ride. Anyways, here is my new addition to the already too large fleet. Guess which one is new | |

I'm somehow not the worst, at least not in my neighborhood. I got to talking with a neighbor on the block behind me who always has an RMS and an RMW in his driveway, turns out he has 4 RMWs, 3 RMSs, and an SS. Not to mention his truck and DD. | |
