New from E. WA

Post by chrisd91 »

Hello from eastern WA. Just picked up my caprice from WA state surplus this past Saturday. 2012 9c1 6.0, 112k. Runs and drives great and has been a lot of fun so far. Haven't had much time to tinker yet, but so far I have made an axle back exhaust and the wife washed it.

Welcome! Keep us updated on how things go, looks on the surface like a fairly clean car. Think your dog would like to turn it into a K-9 unit :)

Hub cap is in the trunk, hubcap bolts are broken off in that one wheel. Probably going to switch it out for the spare rim and get new hubcap bolts soon. The dogs are goobers, but I love them. They are eager to hop in the car but haven't ridden in this one yet.

Car has since gotten 18" wheels from a new camaro, been down the drag strip for a 14.6 @ 99.85, and then been tuned with HPtuners. Hoping to run it down the track again soon

Looks good with those rims.

Feels like there are a lot of privately owned ones in Washington.
I know of three 4 here in Western Washington.
