Jackson, New Jersey, United States
|
1966 Oldsmobile Cutlass convertible, original everything, never re painted, true survivor white with red interior. This car was a running, driving all together car when it was bought at an estate sale from the original owners family. It was garage kept, still has all original paint and no body work ever done to it. The frame isa perfect no rust un hit frame with all original suspension and brakes in great condition. The convertible top frame is perfect, not a drop of rust, the screws are still gold anodized and look new. The floors were cut out on the complete drivers side, and the front of the passenger side and fitted with new Sherman floor boards, still need welding in. The bottom rear quarters need replacing, the bottom front fenders need replacing. The cowl is mint as well as the dash. a few tiny spots around the windshield. Hood and trunk are no rust, the doors are very clean and not rusted underneath or in the corners like most, radiator support is mint. The trunk floor has surface rust from the rubber mat, and the very corners by the wheel well were cut out to get to body bolts during restoration. Front drivers inner wheel well has some rust by battery box, fixable, passenger side mint. Have Sherman replacement trunk pans for the car anyway. The car was professionally dismantled and all screws an bolts are bagged and marked, I put the hood, trunk and doors back on for space and to show the true condition of the car. The drivetrain is all original 330 V-8 4 Barrel carb, power steering power brakes and top, engine runs perfectly(all tuned up and oil changed). Still has original muffler system, never replaced, still very clean. Still have all the matching locks with original keys that work perfectly.This car deserves a full restoration, and would make a great 442 clone. Nothing has ever been butchered, customized or changed out, everything is original, even the original spare tire! The car is missing nothing, every piece is there, but you will need a new top motor, glove box cardboard, top, and an interior kit (carpets,seat covers, door panel leather). All in all, the most original car I have ever owned, comes with assembly manual.

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6
Wed, 11 Dec 2013Ever 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.
Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison
Thu, 13 Nov 2014The 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.
This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The 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?
