1991-1994 range. Can anyone detect whether or not there is a chrome bar over the licence plate area? (Not a '95/'96 owing to C pillar shape.) |

Maybe this will help: http://goput.it/19f.jpg |

Thanks. Still hard to tell, but I believe there is no chrome strip. As such, this would be a '91 to '92. (Car is painted police colors so the B pillar cannot be used to further narrow it down.) |

It definitely has the 1991-1992 tailights. However, I think we can safely assume it is a 1992 model due to the body-colored B pillars. |

Like I said, though. This is a special police paint job which likely involved the B pillars, too. |

While I agree with you that the B-pillars could have been painted over, many times it wasn't the case when they received a paint job. We should go on what is visible. If we were to be cautious every single time, we probably wouldn't have any 1992's listed on the off-chance that they could actually be '91s. |

I understand what you are saying and we will leave as '92, but I felt this might be a special situation owing to the police package. |

I don't quite understand how it would be a special situation owing to it being a police package. The cars were painted factory color most times during the assembly process. If anything, the b-pillars would be painted over during a subsequent paint job (especially with studio vehicles). |

I suppose they order white cars, so they do not have to repaint the car (and the pillars) in white? |

Who orders white cars? Law enforcement agencies? If a certain agency ordered a 1991 Caprice, then it would have come painted straight from the factory in white with the pillars in black as this was how they were originally designed. |

Yes that's what I mean; a mostly-white police car is probably ordered in white and then completed, but not fully repainted. |
