1985-chevrolet-celebrity-eurosport2Subtle changes marked the 1985 edition of the popular Celebrity.  All models got 14-inch wheels and power brakes as standard equipment.  Furthermore, coupes and sedans could now be “dressed up” with vinyl roofs, while wagons could wear simulated wood paneling.

Like other Chevrolet’s this year, there were also some engine modifications worth noting. The base 2.5-liter four got roller lifters but no more horsepower, holding steady at 92.  The H.O. 2.8-liter V6 got multi-port fuel injection to replace the former carburetor, dropping five horsepower in the transition, to 130.  The “regular” 2.8-liter V6 and 4.3-liter diesel remained unchanged at 112 and 85 horsepower, respectively. The four speed manual was now available only with the four-cylinder engine (no longer with the H.O. V6), with a three speed automatic standard elsewhere.  The two gas V6’s offered an optional four-speed automatic.1985-chevrolet-celebrity-eurosport1

Prices were up about $400 this year, but sales kept climbing: from 276,500 in ’84 to 355,000 for 1985. That was enough to make Celebrity the second largest seller in Chevy’s line, close on the heels of the Cavalier.
