New project. I will post better pictures later. I just got my hands on a 1984 Caprice Landau. Looking to go black and keep the chrome molding. It has a 350 in it and a 400 transmission. Looking to network with other Caprice owners. Might need a few parts if you have extras or are parting out some projects. Location is Olympia Washington state. Let me know what you think of my car. Cheers!

Gorgeous Chevrolet. Would definitely love to see what happens to this car. Wish more people went in the 'bbodyforums' section but they don't seem to realize it is even there..?

Yes For sure. I am new to the area. Just got stationed out here with the Airforce. I am wanting to get into some meets and things once I get the car up to par. I did see that wagon at the Lemon lot for sale. I am Just drawn to the Coupe look

I know this is a B body. But I can access this site from work so I just decided to use this. Sorry If thats not acceptable. I will post some interior pictures soon. I need some Exterior parts as well. Does anyone know a good site that sells parts for this beauty. I have been having a hard time finding anything. A List of things I need.
1. A Classic Radio and Bezel
2. Hood ornament
3. Landau emblems
4. The right direction to head for paint. ( im thinking black)
5. A replacement grill

p.s I have saw some emblems and grills on ebay. I might end up buying one soon,

i just babysatg all day so hell naw but tomorrow I'll post pics of what I believe are the badges you're requesting. By a complete coincidence I came into the them recently. I also have the emblem that is supposed to be above the grille, although I think maybe that is for a 4door. Will post tomorrow. Just gave away a set of perfectly good hubcaps that went to your car too - couldn't even get them to go off for $20 on the bay.

Dude that's totally old man mint. I would rock it just as it is. Its got good looking paint, pinstripe, moldings and everything. Once you change that you cant get it back. I would tint the windows, put exhaust and it and some rally's. Just sayin.

It's going down. The top badge just needs a little black paint touch up. I think the gear selector is from a 79 Caprice but don't quote me on this. Old guys love to remind me when I'm wrong on here immediately.
