VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS

 

                          In 1983 the Caprice Coupe was being redesigned and

                          returned in the 1984 model year. For 84, only the Caprice

                          Classic trim was available for the Coupes and Wagons, but

                          the overall outside appearance was unchanged from the

                          previous generation. Technological changes allowed the

                          wiper/washer controls to be moved from the dash to the

                          turn signal lever and the optional cruise control gained

                          incremental acceleration/deceleration. This allowed for

                          speed changes up and down 1 MPH at a time.
