Dang I haven't seen a Caprice wagon in a while. That's a particularly fetching shade of green too.

Can never tell if the taillights are off of a Sierra or not

There’s a pizza place near me that uses a mid ‘80s Town Car as a delivery vehicle - actually, I don’t know if they’re still in business or not, the owner’s brother who managed the place got into a social media argument over wearing masks and threw around some offensive slurs, and the owner made things worse when he tried to defend him.
Anyway, amazing to think of trusting a several decade old car to operate as an essential component of your business.

Man, that’s awesome and fuck me they’re huge....look at that overhang off the rear axle, that has to be nearing smarcar length.

The overhangs allow one to really drink in its magnificence

When I still had an ‘84, he wanted to talk to me about it when I stopped in to get takeout, I think he just likes the car* . But parts availability is not great, and they have lots of wiring, plastic, and power accessories that get fragile with age.
*Note, he seemed perfectly reasonable and not crazy before the virus thing started

They’re built like a big truck, and are the size of one, too. Except with more passenger capacity and ride comfort. Similar tow rating, though.
