1962 Oldsmobile F-85 Cutlass Convertible. 1st. Year Of The Convert. Survivor! on 2040-cars
Mountain View, California, United States
|
Hi, up for auction is my 1962 Oldsmobile F-85 Cutlass Convertible. This very nice first year convertible is in very nice condition. A very nice paint job and a beautiful period correct new interior. Everything works on the car and it runs strong, shifts smoothly due to a fresh rebuilt factory automatic transmission. The design of these cute little cars make them a favorite of Oldsmobile Collectors, but as we know few have survived. The aluminum V8 is a awesome motor and had a long production run- a testament to its advanced design and durability. Fitted with a power top, this fun little car is just the thing for top down summer time cruising. Standard engine was the new small V-8, all aluminum with a displacement of 215 cubic inches (which later became famous as the Rover V8 engine) With a two barrel carburetor, it was rated at 155 H.P. and 210 foot pounds of torque. Transmission was the newly introduced three-speed Roto Hydramatic. The F-85 Cutlass Convertible line-up was added September 1962!! If you are looking for an affordable 60's convertible that you don't see everyday, this is your car! Please look at the detailed pictures I have taken carefully, if there is a specific picture of the Olds you would like to see, please ask. If there is a specific question you have about the car, again, please ask. Feel fee to email me with any and all questions you may have or you can call me direct at (650)400-8836 The Olds is located here in the San Francisco bay area and is available to be seen and driven in person!! This is a neat little car that is a blast to drive. This is a driver, not a trailer queen, although the paint looks great, it is not perfect, again, this car is driven!! Body is straight, and the black body with the white convertible top just sets this car apart. Thanks for the interest, good luck on the auction and as always....Happy Bidding!! |

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.
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.
