Tullahoma, Tennessee, United States

here is my really nice 1983 hurst olds that runs like a hurst olds should, this car was owned by the local gm dealership owner and was part of his collection, he passed away and it was put on the lot for sometime in which I was able to aquire it some time later, the car used to be taken to car shows and was built to also race but he never got around to it, and also be able to be driven daily, the car has been garage kept except for its time on the lot, body has no rust and is perfectly straight, the paint shines beautifully but has a few minor scratches and spots from being on the lot for a year and was painted some time ago but still stands out very nicely, the original 180 horse motor & trans was pulled out and the new motor and original trans cost 10,000 dollars to be professionally built by a local speed shop and they did an awesome job, the motor is a chevy 388 stroker, roller cam, and full roller rockers, angle plug heads with performance porting and valves, billet crank and rods, 10.5 to 1 forged pistons, hp pump, comp cam push rods and timing components, balanced and blueprinted, and I am sure there is much more but I don't know everything that is in the motor just the dollar figure it cost from the family and the basic components after talking to the lead mechanic at the dealership, I myself pulled the valve cover on one side to confirm the full roller rockers and can see that it does have angle plug heads, its also a 400 block which is consistent with the 388 stroker engines, I was told it put out close to 500 horsepower, so I drove it and it surprised me how fast it really was, I own a 2012 dodge challenger with the 470 hp 392 hemi so I know what close to 500 hp feels like and this car is probably faster than my challenger, the tranny shifts better than any 200 r4 overdrive tranny I have ever driven very firm tire chirping shifts all the way into overdrive tranny is very well built, motor and trans have very low miles on them and car is very driveable and cruises very nicely for having that kind of power, lightning rod shifters work perfect, exhaust is full 2 1/2 inch with flowmaster mufflers large attractive chrome tips out the back headers and racing dumps with bolt on caps turned out behind the front tires, car handles very well, has upgraded shocks all the way around, positrac rear with 3.73 gears, air does work on car but needs to be charged ( I would have done it but it requires r-12), interior is very nice as you can see in pics, headliner is sagging a little in the very back, rims and tires on this car are very nice and give it a good stance, I can swap them with original hurst olds chrome rims and the original goodyear gt tires which are in great shape but they aren't as wide as these and in my opinion don't look as good, they are on another hurst olds I have, this hurst olds is the perfect car for someone who wants a hurst olds that runs like what a hurst olds should run like, it can be driven everyday. will hold its own with the new model muscle cars out there and probably beat a lot of them, sounds like a beast and backs it up, yet rides very comfortably, and stands out, I get compliments and turned heads everywhere I go, any questions call (931-581-0612) or message me my name is Alvin,,,,,this is a very beautiful car, a true original hurst olds built by a local gm dealership in the tradition of the hurst name. and would be an awesome addition to someone's collection......thanks for looking!

eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant
Wed, 18 Jun 2014If you have a need to relive the 1970s, then here is the vehicle for you. This groovy blast from the past is a 1976 GMC Motorhome currently for auction in Florida on eBay Motors, and it is one green machine - just not in the modern sense.
The seller claims that this beast has had just two owners and has covered a mere 61,308 miles in its decades on the road. It's reportedly never been restored or repainted and comes with all of the necessary books and manuals. A 7.5-liter (455-cubic-inch) Oldsmobile V8 with a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission powering the front wheels propels this far-out RV, and the double set of rear wheels out back use a self-leveling air suspension to provide a cushy ride.
The purported low miles and good condition really make this GMC a stand out, though. The exterior combination of lime stripes and beige with just a touch of green is like nothing else on the road today. Plus, the polished bumpers and wheels make it all pop. Inside, it's even better with monochromatic green upholstery and shag carpet. It features everything you'd ever need on a long trip, including a bathroom, kitchenette and lots of seating. The only hint of modernization is an HD TV next to the stove, but its size is a perfect fit for the hole there.
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.
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.
