This car belonged to chef and restaurant owner Artic Bucco (John Ventimiglia) and was only seen in one scene in episode 1.13 "I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano". |

Is it correct to call this Chevy "Estate"? I thought that term was just used by us English. |

This should be listed Chevrolet Caprice Estate, not Caprice Estate Classic. |

@moviecarkevin: The "Caprice Estate" badge is an optional package that is being used in the Caprice Classic series that includes faux woodgrain on the side of the car .gif ";)") |

This contradicts what you said above about it not being a Caprice Classic. |

The "Caprice Estate" is a name by Chevrolet for the optional group package which includes faux woodgrain whereas the "Caprice Classic" is a name by Chevrolet is being used without the optional package. By the defintion 'Estate' is used by the British definition and the definition 'Station Wagon' is used by the America definition. Here is Chevrolet Caprice Classic without faux woodgrain - /vehicle_104093-Chevrolet-Caprice-Classic-1980.html Here is Chevrolet Caprice Estate with the optional package group - /vehicle_148580-Chevrolet-Caprice-Estate-1980.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station_wagon I hope this clears up the confusion for these term.  |

Shouldn't it be "Caprice Classic Estate?" They were all "Caprice Classics" as Caprice did not become a stand-alone name until 1986. It seems that the Estate wagon was an extension of the Caprice Classic. And I don't think he's confused about the term wagon vs. estate. You did contradict yourself a bit by basically saying that all Caprices are Classics yet this one is a Caprice Estate (no Classic). |

I was thinking of what the script says at the front fender as shown at the main picture  |

No, I am sure of the Caprice Classic wagon without the faux woodgrain is called by "Caprice Classic" by Chevrolet. The trend started back in 1973 model year when they have the "Caprice Estate" labeled by Chevrolet with the faux woodgrain. When they downsized the Caprice wagon, they introduced without the faux woodgrain and labeled as "Caprice Classic" starting 1977 model year. I don't know anything beyond 1987 since the George H. Dammann published the book for final 1986 model year listing from 75 years of Chevrolet book. I may need to look for newer Chevrolet book that contains full size cars listing Here is the breakdown by timeline: 1966-68: Caprice (with faux woodgrain), 1969-72: Kingswood Estate (with faux woodgrain), 1973-76: Caprice Estate (with faux woodgrain), 1977-90 (?), Caprice Classic (without faux woodgrain) and Caprice Estate (with faux woodgrain as optional package group). I believe when they introduced the tub body in 1991 model year, I think they went down to "Caprice Classic" with both plain and faux woodgrain by then I sincerely hope this clears up the Caprice series station wagon nomenclature  |

Artie flips out in this scene and smashes the butt of his rifle against one of the taillights on this car! |
