    This Caprice is actually wearing Ford hubcaps!

    Well, I don't know. The reason why I ask is because the only time I see CPD 1981-1985 Impalas is in movies. The 1980's style Impala is one of my favorite cars in the CPD fleet. I was wondering if there were any actual pictures of them.

    (Regarding the car above) I thought the 1987 Caprices were 8000-8600 series, and were the last 80's Caprices with hubcaps? Or am I wrong?
    (I could be wrong)

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    You are wrong. 1987 vehicles were numbered from approximately 7600 to 7900. The 1988s were the last Chevrolets ordered with hubcaps. The 1990 Caprices did not have any to save $$ and they were fitted with old Ford caps (as in this photo) before they hit the street. We got no marked cars in 1989.

    I remember these cars rolling around the city when I was young. Are there any more photos of these Caprices, or 1980's Impalas in the CPD fleet?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Why would you ask a question like that, Snookie (Ahmed)? You've been leaving comments under CPD photos for years here at CCdC. You know where all the pictures are. And by the way, you were wrong on all years of the cars when you left your comments. This one is a 1990, not an '87.
