There for a second, I thought you were talking about my Caprice.

Have to admit, I looked over to see who was driving

Saw one yesterday early in the morning heading north on Route 1 in Peabody at the Danvers line by Costco/TGI Fridays. Maroon LS. I think it was a 94 B4U, had 2 factory tailpipes, lace alloys, and the older door mounted mirrors. Driver's mirror had been replaced with a white one from another car. Exited onto Route 114.

Gotta' say .. love that mirror shot!


Time for me to get snappin' with my new cell phone.. as my crackberry died.. .. friggin iPhone is a pain in the ass to navigate quickly in the car...!!! Slide to unlock this, scroll through that.. but that soon means 8meg pxl shots..to get that perfect skeevy car stalker shot!

I'm not sure how I got it but I found out a way to get a little camera icon on my lock screen. You slide it up and the camera comes on! simple things make me happy. They also allowed me to get nice shots in the past when I needed it quickly.

Found in an Airplane Hanger in Westport NY. No idea who the owner is. But it's been in there for a while.

On the road from Chicago
Elkhart Indiana where Winnebagos come from.

Buffalo NY


Surprising lack of B-Bodies. Only a few in NY and a couple in VT.... 1055 mile trip.

One last post.
On Highway from Chicago.
It started at 114degrees in the parking lot. This was two and a half hours later on the highway. Figured it was close as the billboards were showing the same numbers.
It's HOT in Chicago!

But when you find out, it'll also be heading east?

Ok there is a black 95/96 SS that keeps going past my house, Parker Street in Wilmington, MA! WHO IS IT! It is a very clean car I just want to know who is driving it!

Today's sightings:
-DCM Fleetwood on Herman Melville Boulevard, New Bedford
-Dark blue boxy for sale in Norwood (might be in the Craigslist thread)
-Beat up dark blue Roadmaster on 495 in Mansfield
-Black Caprice at the Wendy's drive-through on Robert Toner Boulevard in North Attleborough.

If you had 95-96 mirrors, you could have gotten the whole car in the shot.

No pics, but on the way to Crovo's I saw a really nice '95 WB4 Roadmaster and a '91 Caprice sedan.

Saw a really nice DGGM SS at Prestige Auto Reconditioning on Broadway in Pawtucket this morning.

Saw a really nice dggm SS in a driveway in Salem, NH last week b4 I left for florida last week. Its gonna be a whole lot nicer when I get back since crovo stopped by and threw the fuel pump in and Chris buffed it out while I was gone.

And don't forget I removed the sway bars, and took the turbo tee for a little spin.

Ha! I put special security bolts on them because of Steve, and my neighbor is on 24 hour watch with a 12 guage. But Im glad you took the buick out. Somebody should drive the damn thing!

FOR SALE
1) BUICK TURBO TEE
2) FULL HOTCHKIS SUSPENSION
3) 12 GA SHOTGUN

LOL! I hope you didnt hurt Roger! He is old and was doing me a favor!

Saw a maroon wagon today a the BEE ZEE gas station On southwest cutoff. I politely pulled up along Side it and asked the elderly owner if it was a 91 92 or a 93, to which he replied sharply IT'S A 95. Clearly had door mirrors and tbi dash. I replied so it has an LT1 engine. He replies: YUP.
How the hell do people not know what they drive?!?!?!?

I keep seeing this guy in a turquoise/light blue with white top '66 Impala SS convertible with Rally wheels on it, saw him like last week on 128 and honked as I passed, then last night as I was coming home at like 1:45am on 93 south over the bridge in Methuen I see him again with a GTO (?) following as I went by, he then floored it past my car at WOT then slowed back down as I gave the thumbs up back at him, hahaha

Awesome car

Saw this being towed on the pike exit 9..... Hope it's being rescued and not staying in this "condition"
First thing I thought of was: "name kuntry"

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!

I'm seriously considering for my next vehicle, daily or project, getting a clean southern box with fresh paint and DUBS then just selling the wheels to pay for gas on the drive back home with some 15's!

Was that one of you on University Avenue in Westwood this morning?

I saw the maroon '94 Caprice with the white door mirror again today all the way along 128 and behind me on Route 1 also...

While on Route 1 said Caprice driver probably witnessed me put in their place a mouth-breather (that probably possesses a Deval-approved Massachusetts "X-registration") in a spray painted flat black (not satin, flat black) early 90s Accord sedan with oversprayed Altezzas, that was tailgating everyone in back of us and passing on the right when ridiculously not safe to do so, cutting people off. He started riding my ass when I had no place to go in the left lane with cars ahead of me in both lanes, so when he went to my right to get next to me I did too, then slowed down...
He went by giving me the finger out his window, so I waved and smiled...while he failed to advance any further ahead...as I took my exit. Why don't people stay in the friggin' lane and just go with the flow? Little shit.



Now that I've vented...in other news, this guy in Reading that always has interesting cars in the driveway (used to be a nice GTO with a green letter MA plate, then a 77ish Grand Prix that I saw at cruise nights with about 10K original miles or something nutty like that, Corvettes, Escalades) now has a woodgrain RMW with nice 17 or 18" Cragar SS wheels (?)...it looks pretty awesome, I'll try to snag a pic. Last 2 times I went by he was in the driveway messing with it.

Branford, CT yesterday



Also spotted a dark blue woody RMW, a tan woody Caprice, and a battered white 93+ sedan just down the road, plus a DGGM SS heading south on I-95 in Clinton.

Saw this 94 SS at work today. Thought it was Steve's for a second

You work at Fairpoint?

Been waiting to post a few. iPhone is a bitch to get quick pics... i loved my crackberry, but time moves on....

Western Maine, Wilton, old imp convert? while out on a 500 mile weekend ride. was awesome!



----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Out for a coffee near work.. whadday know? The front of the DCM Caprice I saw a few weeks back
..Quincy





---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kept waiting to catch this SS... finally grabbed a shot of it down in Norwell. Noticed a crushed rocker/dogleg/door.. but still nice looking




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Roady in Higham on 3a

That vert looks like a 74 or a 75 caprice convertible! A very nice car and hard to find I believe. Matt Trakker can confirm what it is though.


I really want an SS as the next purchase I think

Yep, that's a '74 Caprice. Paint looks like it would buff out...I wonder why it's sitting in the weeds like that, it's a rare car even when it was new...you see more '75s because people knew it was the last year and preserved them/ordered them.

That DCM Caprice seems like someone who should be on the forums...ha.

Matt-
I will be up there in 4 weeks. I know it has been on the side of this old gas station for a few, years... so its worth checking out if you or anyone want me to look into it.

Gonna say its 4hours from me down here in Plymouth area. So from NH, maybe 2.5 hrs. Not a bad ride, but its 1hr from the Maine Turnpike exit 75.

Enjoy the weekend

No rust! Looks like a nice part of the country, I could never live someplace without hills!

Plenty of massive hills, and lots of 30+ year old daily drivers. I was especially surprised at the number of '60s & '70s imports on the road.

Yesterday on Beaver Street in Waltham - two white/woody Roadmaster wagons, four cars apart.

Mike, you should be our B-body investigative reporter. Willing to go across the country to get the pics!!!

I wonder how long we have until he goes to Germany and spies a yellow 9c6...

I think I'm up to seven states (and it would be eight, but I didn't have the camera with me when I spotted a RMW in Shaftsbury, VT).

Just passed by Rich (Mojombo65) in Reading, it would appear he has rectified the no start issue!

Auto repair pro's in mansfield Route 106. Next to my job. Car belongs to a NE patriot player.

I actually like it. Was it bagged? I remember there being a kid that worked there with a lowered short bed Chevy. Iirc it was primer green running steelies? Dog tracked real bad too.

I go to stefanos across the street to get subs all the time!

Not going to lie, I like that car too even if the gold is a little gaudy. It does work with the color, and it's not a donk. Looks like rear disc swapped in? I wonder if that's the original rear sway bar, that's what I was looking for to put on my car.

No bags.
The current owner of the green pick up used to be my assistant here at Lance. Its a 1975, 350v8 3spd auto.
You are correct it tracks very bad

Thanks for the info. It's still a sweet truck no matter how many tires he goes through in 30k miles lol.

Among your usual corvettes, camaros, and quintessential disgustangs, this is one of 2 cars I bothered snapping picks of. the other was a MINT Monte carlo SS.
