Better than NEW: 1970 Oldsmobile 442 Sports Coupe
This is not your Father's Oldsmobile and definitely not one of the cookie cutter redone 442's that are out there,
but a one of a kind 442 that at every car show, both National and local, draws swarms of people who look at it in
awe. In the short time that I have shown this car, it has received "Best of Show Engine" at the Blacktop Nationals
in Wichita KS, and "numerous" 1st place Muscle Car recognitions. From front to rear new paint, no "orange peel or waves", on a scale from
1-10, 1 being a disaster and 10 being absolutely perfect, this cars paint job is a 9. New chrome locking hood pins
and chrome latches. New chrome hood hinges and springs.
New W-30 inner fenders with new inner fenderwell a-arm shields, four new Billet polished aluminum cowl vents. New
front windshield, new tinted side glass, and new tinted rear window (tint matches side glass), new window channels
and new rubber.
New classic dash gauges, plus three new gauges (clock/amp meter/oil pressure) added to where ashtray was, newly
covered dash, new satellite radio (face matches stock radio). Air compressor gauge and switch are mounted in the
glove box along with the satellite receiver. New clutch and brake pedal assembly.
Did away with all wood grain on dash and doors and replaced with carbon fiber. New LED lights on doors and back
side panels. New Billet aluminum door jamb louvers with new u-shaped door jamb seals. New "American Made" window
crank handles. Complete new interior and new perforated headliner, absolutely no wrinkles in entire interior (all
interior is chalk white). New black carpet is of the 1955 Corvette style close knap. All inside panels on both door
and rear sides are done in plexiglass instead of "cardboard", this way will never warp. Kick panels have new
speakers mounted. All new stainless steel trim around doors and widows. New sound insulation and heat barrier
added under carpet and headliner.
New aluminum shroud with two heavy duty electric fans (heating not an issue: in 97 degree weather, driving at 65
mph, with a/c on, water temp stays at 180 degrees), new aluminum radiator (built with 10 fins per square inch and
three 1 1/2 inch rods). Engine completely rebuilt that is now a 455 cubic inch with 400 horse power instead of the
375 horse power. New serpentine belt system, new water pump, new polished stainless steel overflow tank for
radiator and new polished stainless steel storage tank for power steering, new chrome alternator, a complete new
air conditioning system, new polished aluminum compressor and with all new braided steel lines, custom made value
covers and new exhaust manifolds. Both exhaust and intake manifolds have been high performance coated in silver.
New Muncie M20 4-speed with new bell housing, new fly wheel (balanced), new pressure plate and new Hurst shifter,
new drive shaft and new universal joints plus a new electronic over drive from Gear Vendors which gives you 8
forward gears and at 70 mph the rpm is at 2,100. Drive shaft is only 31 inches long, the third member is a 323 posi
tract. New chrome power brake booster. New front and rear brakes, new 2 inch dropped spindles, front with new 1
inch dropped coil springs, new 2 inch dropped coil springs on rear with new Monroe air shocks and new cast aluminum
differential cover. New Megatron battery, new 10 inch sub woofer "fantastic bass sound", a new electric air
compressor for air shocks and heavy duty power supply switch all located in the trunk. New exhaust system and
completely rewired all connections sodered.
Classic chrome Crager wheels, front tires are 255/60R/15 raised white letter B.F. Goodrich and rear tires are
275/60R/15 raised white letter B.F. Goodrich, new spare tire and new spare wheel is 255/60R/15. Trunk is sound
proof and same type of carpet used as in the interior. Lastly, I have full documentation for everything done to
this car. The total miles since completed is 3,650.

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?

Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

The folks behind Generation Gap have lost their minds with this latest video. The goal here is to determine the ultimate family cruiser, but the choices are what you would least expect, with a heavily modded 1970 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser going up against a 2012 Ferrari FF.
You might anticipate an over-40-year-old Oldsmobile to pale in comparison to any modern Ferrari, but this wagon has a ton of secrets under its skin thanks to Lingenfelter. First, it packs a supercharged LS3 V8 with a claimed 650 horsepower and a six-speed manual gearbox. That big upgrade in power is further helped with air suspension and massive Wilwood disc brakes. The result is nothing short of deafening, with blaring yelps whenever the driver even nudges the accelerator.
The alternative sounds just as good, albeit in very different way. The Ferrari's 6.3-liter V12 pumps out 651 hp and 504 pound-feet with a part-time all-wheel drive system. While the FF lacks a lot of the hauling ability of the Olds, it makes up for the deficit in handling, luxury, and in many eyes, simply by having the famous prancing horse on the grille.

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Ever since Gran Turismo 4, Jay Leno has had at least one of his cars included in the popular racing simulator (starting with the Tank Car), and more of his machines appears in Gran Turismo 6. They include this nose-heavy, front-wheel-drive V8-powered muscle car. Yes, that aptly describes a 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado - except Leno's is rear-wheel drive. And it has a Cadillac CTS-V race engine modified to pump out 1,070 horsepower.
For the latest Jay Leno's Garage episode, he takes his real Toronado out for a cruise and then drives the virtual one like he stole it, accruing some body damage along the way. Leno also drives the virtual supercar Mercedes-Benz designed for GT6, the AMG Vision Gran Turismo Concept that debuted at the LA Auto Show, along with the real one, which is a 1:1-scale model. The model is radio-controlled and equipped with a small electric motor, sufficient to move it on and off of auto show floors.
Head below to watch the episode, which includes a few words from GT6 creator Kazunori Yamauchi.
