The Caprice was launched by Chevrolet in mid-1965 as an upscale version of the Impala. It was in response to the success Ford found with the LTD, which itself was a fancy Galaxie 500. The Caprice was cosmetically similar to the Impala, though with a little more exterior bling. And, in 1967, all the taillight lenses were red rather than the center ones clear for backup lights, as on the Impala. This one-owner example is a survivor with an astonishing 12,800 miles, making it a rare find today. Located in Lake in the Hills, Illinois, this “Sport Sedan” is available here on eBay for $33,500. Thanks for the latest tip, “Curvette”.
All Caprices came with a V8 engine, which was optional in the Impala, even as late as 1967. In this case, it’s the entry-level 283 cubic inch version instead of a 327 or 396. It has an automatic transmission, which might be a 2-speed Powerglide. With fewer than 13,000 miles, we assume this Chevy runs and drives, yet the seller makes no such claim. The body and white paint look good and rust-free, and could be 100% from the factory.
This body style was referred to as a “Sport Sedan” by Chevrolet, which was a fancy way of saying 4-door hardtop. 2-door hardtops were called Sport Coupes. We’re told it’s a one-owner luxury car that’s a “true” barn find, though there’s no barn anywhere in sight. It’s said to be in “perfect” condition, but some of the seams in the burgundy front seat have come loose. Rather than relying on a blanket to prevent things from getting worse, perhaps an upholstery shop can fix things.
Some of our readers might agree that a bit of detailing would help make the car more attractive at the seller’s price point. There were a lot of these Caprices running around back in the day, but when was the last time you saw one from the 1965-70 first generation?
The asking price is a lot of money, $33,500, for a car without a strong following. Not much of a description, where is the documentation to back up their mileage claim?

Yep, and for the engine bay being really filthy and the overall poor presentation and photos this will sit.
The seller has been trying to sell this car for a long time. The car just does not holdup to the 12 thousand miles claim and saying it can be a Supernatural car will not add any value.
It may be slightly over priced but these 4 door post-less 67s are hard to find in decent condition. Supernatural replicas are hot items. This is a buy in the high teens to low 20s.
67 and 68 were bad years for Impalas. 65/66 were good and 69/70 recovered the model. Wouldn’t touch this.
Yep….and I think we’ve seen it on BF before….
You are right, April 2025 when the seller was asking $50,000.

Yes to the car, no to the price and mileage claim.
Improper storage of a very low-mileage car can lead to damage. Cars subjected to long-term storage under a cheap cover can have damaged paint or rust. Cars stored outdoors in hot, dry climates can have extensive interior damage. Cars stored outdoors in wet climates can have substantial rust on the undercarriage. However, improper storage will not result in a dirty engine compartment like this car has. The vibe here is definitely 112K miles with a reasonably careful owner.
Supernatural clone anyone? Sorry Mr. Seller, I don’t buy your 12K mile claims. Between the condition of the car and your skimpy details, it ain’t worth 33K
dollars unless you own one of those credit rebuilding car lots here in Florida. I went to one with
my SIL a few years ago. She filled out the app, and they showed her two of their low priced vehicles– a ’99 Chevy Malibu for $33, 500 or a well used Dodge Ram crew cab for
$30,000 with nearly 400K miles on it. Both vehicles required a $5K down payment and $650/mo.csr payment. After he
showed the cars to us, (And I told
him to go eff himself) I asked him
what was he smokin in that vape
of his. And whatever it is, I want some. Maybe then I’d understand
why these A-holes do their best to screw someone over when selling a vehicle. There are plenty of these cars left so rarity isn’t the issue. Just keep looking around till you find nicest
one for $33K. Forget this guy. He wants to stick it to someone,
but it ain’t gonna be me
Hi Ken! Good to hear from you! In most “buy here-pay here” lots. The down-payment is what they have in the vehicle. Then once you start/(if you start) paying for the vehicle that becomes their profit. The cost/down-payment is incase you skip town with “their” car. They didn’t lose any money.
Some of these people assume that just because it’s an old car that it’s worth tons of cash, he’d be lucky to get 4gs on a good day
I’d happily pay 4K for this car, maybe up to 6. But a poor old man like me couldn’t go any more. I got my license on Dad’s new ’68 Impala. It had a 307 with powerglide. Lasted over 200k even with 3 boys going through it. When I got out of the Army, I bought a used ’67 Caprice 2 door and drove the wheels off of it. Good times
Based on the condition and the unreliable milage claim (looks for me more like 112K) this car will not sell for more than 10-13K. 33K is just silly and the car will never sell close to this.
$3350.00 would be a stretch…
I have a close twin. Mine is a 2969 Impala Caprice Classic. I got got this car new fir my Father in 1969. Replaced his 1964 Impala Super Sport Convertible. That was a 409 Convertible with every possible option, from cruise control to remote trunk release. The.409 has been sold. Soon I will sell the 1969. Near identical mileage and exterior. But a near perfect interior. I would deliver it for this price, but expect it to be about 10% of this price. Good Luck to the seller, might help me!!
Fantasy pricing………………never going to happen. $7-10K car in that condition.
Ditto on the mileage claim
This is my ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE Caprice! — much nicer than the ’66 or the ’68 — especially with those four doors and the 283: MY kind of car!!! But not in white, not without air conditioning, and NOT at any 33K! I agree that a 112K car is likely being passed-off as 12K — though, if it sat for years in a garage and they cleaned the dust only off the exterior and not out of the engine-bay, maybe. But this car has a back-story which the seller isn’t telling us. Good luck with this one: 12K ought to be its PRICE, if it is a turn-key and drive it home proposition, provided that there is no rust anywhere. And it had better have its owner’s manual and original keys!
It has AC.
Ditto on the mileage claim.
Perfect? What?
Yeah I agree, price is too much. Didn’t know the Supernatural car had such a following? Never saw the show but saw the Impala when I worked Fanexpo last year.
The car I do remember from the show is the Super Blue Dodge Challenger they had one season for a couple episodes as it looks very similar to my ‘72 Challenger, in Super Blue, black vinyl top and body side molding. Fun fact is that despite theirs looking like a ‘70, it was just a ‘70 grill and the car was possibly a ‘73-‘74 as the rear bumper has the 5mph bumpers and side markers were from the ‘72-‘74 Challengers.
Did you see he has a ‘67 Impala SS hood for $12,500? I would imagine they are hard to find but I’ve never seen a hood priced that high, but then again I don’t go hood shopping much.
I had one of these back in the day, prior to my wrenching days.
It was either a ’67 or ’68. Had a 307 engine that couldn’t keep the lifters quiet. I’d crank the rockers down and enjoy quiet for about 20 minutes. Not one of my more memorable rides…..
“Everything looks like brand new” ?
Maybe to Stevie Wonder.
This car has been for sale for a while and for that price that is the reason. It does have A/C and the drive by windows and would make a nice cruiser with some cleaning up and remove the rear snow tires.
33K and you want me to detail the car, repair the seat and put new tires on it. The owner puts that into it and it may bring 16-17K. This is about as bare bones as a Caprice can get.
In 2026, 30K is now the new 10K. It stinks.
I wonder if this guy is friends with the dealer trying to unload that Yugo for $40k?
has been for sale for months. price is just too high as others have said. 12 k miles no way. the bay looks like 200k, and snow tires come on give me a break.5k would be a stretch on a good day
It’s possible that the mileage is original, but this one’s been stored somewhere wet or humid for at least several years, based in how pebbled that exhaust pipe is. And if you aren’t (for example) storing something in a heated garage and pampering it while driving (or not driving it at all), the years make the mileage irrelevant. Most of the rubber parts are probably fragile at best, whole car needs a good going-through.
Also: is it factory overspray in the trunk at the hinge boxes? Was it typical that the top of the tail panel was not body color from the factory? Did they have flocking in the trunk?
There is no way this is original miles. At 12,000 miles there should be a hint of original hoses or hose clamps, belt should be original, just something. All there were replaced a long time ago by looking at the photo. The driver seat shows way more than 12,000 miles,more like 112,000 miles. Look at this guys feedback on ebay, every feedback in the last 10 is for a part for a 1967 Impala/Caprice. One of those feedbacks is a negative. I would make a reasonable offer for this car since I am in Illinois within driving distance to go take a look. After seeing his feedback I’m not ready to spend a couple hours drive to go talk to someone this far out from reality. This car in this condition is 10k-12k, and both these are crazy high. 1967 full size Chevys are one of my favorite cars, and I don’t own any of these 4dr hardtops. Sure would like to.
Feedback on eBay says it all. Dozens of disgruntled customers can’t be wrong!
I sold one of these with no engine or tranny, a big crease down one side, interior shot, I got $4500. It went to the mid-west to be built into a super-nat car.
