Myt friends call her the "Getaway car" The car has been converted to manual 3-speed on the floor, has manual brakes, manual choke.  Your wife will not want to, or probably even know how to drive it... The body is very solid, no rust except some surface in the trunk. Its in gray primer, pretty much ready for paint.. the interior is all there and is good, front bench and rear is wrapped in a generic smooth vinyl, no rips or tears, looks good. Car runs strong, mechanic just checked it all out and said the motor is strong and in great shape. It literally does not leak anything, brakes -good, clutch -good, tires -good with skinnies up front & wide in the back mounted on aluminum Centerlines. Windows all work. Car has a great stance with the new springs.

As all these old cars, theres a few glitches but not much : Speedometer needs to be hooked up, I have the adapter, after the shifter was installed the adapter is needed so the cable can connect to the trans. Also, some wiring issue where when you turn on the headlights the gauge needles drop, im guessing its a wiring issue with the install of the new gauges. Headlights and signals, even the lil olds side lights work. I have nothing to hide on this vehicle, add paint and weatherstripping and this will be one hell of a ride.  I have all the emblems for the vehicle and some trim pieces also that will come with the vehicle. Not many classics for this price can you just jump in and drive it down the freeway and actually enjoy it.. trust me i know!

**No reserve!! I need to sell so I can buy a place.
**I also have a brand new (in the box) car cover and whatever spare parts I have I will throw in if the car is bought at the buy-it-now price.

******The buyer is 100% responsible for setting up and paying for shipping. I will make sure the car gets on the truck.
            I will release the vehicle for shipping after funds are in my account and available for withdrawl. I will mail the title or overnight it if the buyer wants to pay for overnight postage.

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Ever 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 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.
