Black 1986 Oldsmobile 442 455 Big Block 500hp on 2040-cars
Manchester, New Hampshire, United States
True nascar power. 470hp and 565 lb- ft of torque from a completely built oldsmobile F code 455 big block with under 1000 miles. Motor was built from the blue prints of the October 2000 Car Craft magazine build. This motor is the exact build except a Holly 750 double pumper was used instead of a demon carb. Motor is a complete build from crank on up. .060 over , aluminum performer rpm heads, aluminum performer intake, comp cam, roller rockers, and the list goes on. Please look up the exact build from October 2000 issue of Car Craft. The performance results are staggering. I also have pictures of the magazine article in my pictures. Videos have also been taken today so please contact me for links to the videos of sound, performance, and 360 degree views. The car itself was the top of the line Oldsmobile 442 with power seat, cruise control, tilt wheel, power steering, power windows, power locks, air conditioning( ac current unhooked for performance reasons) the chassis is in excellent shape and drives straight as an arrow down the road. the car is in excellent working order and drives down the road like a stock 307 car did from the factory, however stop the gas peddle and tire melting power will pin you back in the seat until you have to let off. This car is a completely streetable daily driver that runs on pump gas. It drives down the road with no rattles, no vibrations. Please do not be fooled though. This is a low 11 second car. With good drag slicks and minimal performance work it will make 10 seconds in the quarter mile. Meaning the way it sits, right now, its faster than a dodge viper. Faster than a new Corvette. And sound much much better as well. The exhaust starts with hooker headers mated with Flow master true duels exhaust that exit at the back under rear of car. Transmission is a T400 Automatic 3sp with double bands, Kevlar clutches with no hesitation. The rear end is the bullet proof factory posi track 3:73 gears. factory sway bars. All the seals, bearings, and gaskets in motor and tranny are all new with no leaks. Belts, spark plugs, and fluids all replaced today. Car was also detailed in and out today as well. Black paint is like a black mirror. Body is straight as an arrow. No rust. No chips in paint. couple od small dents, but no creases. just a few small dent on hood which are barely noticeable. 442 badges and lettering are all perfect. no ripples in paint. The rims are real authentic and very very rare ss 442 wheels which are 15 inch. you cannot find these in 15 inch. most all were 14 inch. these are factory upgrades!! and all four are in good shape. The tires and brakes are in great shape as well. the interior is absolutely beautiful. And completely stock looking. Even the stock stereo is still in good working order. seats have no rips. Carpets and headliner in great shape. floors and trunk are solid and rust free. gages all work and light up great. gas gage works. tach and speedo work although speedo is not very accurate. if you put bigger rear tires I think it will be more accurate. all the lights work as they should. Car will pass inspection with flying colors. all the trim is excellent. interior is a very nice blueish grey. I cannot say enough about this car. Every day I take this car out people approach me. These cars are rare and becoming very collectable. Mine is one of a kind. I have never seen another G body olds with a 455 build like this. Its a very sought after chassis because of how light they are. The drive train in my car alone is worth over 10k used. No expenses were spared on this car. Two weeks ago my Lincoln Navigator lost a timing chain and blew the motor so now im forced to sell my 442. Its the only reason its for sale. I have been driving this car every day for the last two weeks and its an absolute joy to drive. If you love the look and feel of these cars but hate the lame 170hp 307 these cars came with look no further. This car drives better and has over 330hp more than the stock motor has. This car is the ultimate duel purpose car. I have NEVER RACED IT AT THE TRACK. NEVER ABUSED IT. what I can tell you though is at 40 mph you can stomp the gas and leave two very long black rubber marks on the pavement. At that speed you will be pinned to the back of your seat until you run out of room. Again the drivetrain is barely broken in. It looks,sounds, and drives unbelievable.. I can only hope it goes to someone who appreciates it as much as I have. please contact me for more questions, pictures, and videos. 6o3-657-o888......I would love to hear from you. and answer and questions you have. Car must be paid in full and any checks and or paypal must clear before my car leaves. I can also meet at the local Manchester Airport with the car if that would help. If the car were to be picked up by a transport service I am very accommodating and will help load it. Good luck and happy bidding!!!! |

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?
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.
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.
