The Box Chevy

“ For a good time, call 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 ”

The Box Chevy is a 1982 Chevy Caprice Classic 2 Door Sport Coupe. I bought it on May 17, 2005, for a cool $800. It was very good to me at first, but became a money pit by November 2005. I decided to keep it anyways, and it has been quite the adventure.

Below are some articles I've written about the car.
