1968 Chevrolet Caprice

1968 Chevrolet Caprice - Numbers Matching, HH Code Why This Car Is Special The 1968 Chevrolet Caprice sits at an interesting crossroads in GM history. It was the first year the Caprice became its own fully independent model line rather than a trim package under the Impala umbrella, and Chevrolet made sure buyers noticed the difference. The 1968 Caprice wore unique front and rear styling compared to the Impala, including a more formal roofline on hardtop models, a distinctive hidden-wiper system, and interior appointments that pushed closer to Buick and Oldsmobile territory than anything Chevrolet had offered before in a full-size car. Chevrolet was deliberately targeting the Lincoln Continental and Cadillac DeVille buyer who thought a Chevy badge was beneath them. A lot of those buyers changed their minds in 1968.
