Not a replica, this is the Real Deal 2002 Indy 500 Oldsmobile Bravada Pace Vehicle used for the 2001 Indianapolis 500.

Two were produced to run on the track and this is the #2 SUV.

Eleven times Oldsmobile has lead the Indy 500 and this was the vehicle that did it in the very last time.
This was also the first SUV (and probably the last) to ever lead the race.

It is one amazing SUV, modified to run at 140 mph.
Its fast, its loud, and its perfect.
The paint on it is amazing.  What you see are not decals, that is 3 layers of paint.
The only decals are the Indy Logo on the doors and the wings in the front and rear bumpers.
There are two shades of pearl red with another layer of pearl white then lots of clear.

It has 1,328 miles on it.  Modified Vortec 4200, All wheel drive Smartrak.
Its loaded with options and I have a custom car cover.
The wheels are one-off custom for the track cars.
Mandel bent 3" exhaust with SS Edelbrock muffler.

Everything is still in tack just as it was when it ran the track - racing belts, fire extinguisher, and strobe lights.
Along with the light bar in back it also has strobe lights in the head lights, tail lights, and side mirrors.

Do to the fact that the suspension, engine, and emissions were modified the vehicle has a Scrap Title.

How many times do the actual track cars come up for sale especially the only SUV to ever run the Track?
Lots of additional paperwork are included (see pictures).
Also the picture of the back does not show it but I also have the original #2 Indy 500 license plate on the vehicle.

Please let me know if you have any questions or would like additional pictures.

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.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General 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.

eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

If 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.
