Caprice was produced by Chevrolet for the 1965 to 1996 model years. It was the most popular American car in the sixties and early seventies. Introduced in mid-1965 as a luxury trim package for the Impala four-door hardtop, Chevrolet offered a full line of Caprice models for the 1966 and subsequent model years, including a 'formal hardtop' coupe and THIS Estate station wagon.
Turquoise inside and out, the bowtie Wagon is complete with simulated wood-grain trim paneling, whitewall tires, full-size wheel covers, a luggage rack, in-dash clock, an AM radio and a front bench seat. Equipped with power steering and power brakes, this Caprice is meant to be a comfortable car to drive, able to roll down the road absorbing noise, vibration and harshness with ease, all while providing miles of comfortable travel. The 1968 Caprice received a minor facelift that included a new grille with taillights set into the bumper and optional hidden headlamps. Side marker lamps became standard on all U.S. cars and the Caprice carried over the optional white corner marker lamps at the forward edge of the fenders in addition to the amber parking lamps which were illuminated with the headlights.
Inside, the instrument panel was revised with a return to the horizontal sweep speedometer and a revised three-spoke steering wheel. An optional instrument cluster had a narrow speedometer within its opening and flanking it with engine-turned instruments in the place of warning lamps.
