    These caprices/impalas bring big bucks to the donk/low rider crowd. $16k for a big block driver convertible that needs some touches. A similar Buick(which is more luxurious) would be half that. Don't get me wrong, I love this caprice.

    I've seen 2 door Chevy coupe "glass houses" with significant rust bring $5,000 on eBay.

    Beautiful car.

    Hope whoever buys it keep it stock, or basically stock anyway.

    With a little work, it could be like new again.

    I see that the seller is actually catering to the DONK/Low rider crowd in the ad.
    I like this car overall, it would be a fun cruiser for sure. I wish it luck on it's next chapter.
