You are looking at a really nice 1966 Olds 442 equipped with the tri-power V8 with automatic transmission, power steering and drum brakes. Owned for the past 25 years by the current owner. This car has been used as a weekend driver and local show duty. Owner has had health issues in the past 10 years and this rare and unusual 442 so there has not been much use which is what is forcing his decision to sell this vehicle. He had purchased a very similar one brand new and always lamented about selling it which is what led him to purchase this one so many years ago. In driving this car, it drives surprisingly original. The motor runs like you remember these Olds V8's to run with turbine like smoothness. The auto transmission shifts as it should. The brakes work as well as 4 wheel drum brakes work without any pulling or unusual behavior and actually stops really well. The paint is in really good shape and has some minor imperfections but shows really well and is not in need of any repairs. There are some issues under the paint that are not easily seen, that is, until you know they are there. According to the owner, they have been there for over 10 years and have not gotten any worse. The areas are easily repaired and does not require a complete repaint. We could certainly repair these areas for you if so desired before picking up or shipping the car for extra cost. The underside is dry and solid. No rust visible anywhere. We checked the engine stamp pad and it is blank so we cannot authenticate this as being the original engine or not. Everything works as it should, no unusual engine noises or smoke. This 442 is just a good fairly original car that needs a good home and a new caretaker to keep this piece of automotive history going!
We have this 442 on consignment and it is for sale locally in our showroom. If you have any questions feel free to call Melvin at 845-712-5500 during normal Eastern business hours or email through ebay. If you'd like to make a serious offer please use the make an offer feature or call us directly.

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?
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.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
