1970 OLDS CUTLASS SUPREME CONVERTIBLE
THIS WAS A TRUE BARN FIND. I PICKED IT UP JUST OUTSIDE OF SPRINGFIELD, MO WHERE IT WAS SOLD NEW! IT WAS PARKED NEXT TO ANOTHER OLDS CONVERTIBLE OUTSIDE A BARN UNDER A ROOF. THE TIRES WERE DRY ROTTED, GAS WAS BAD, AND IT NEEDED A BATTERY. I PUT IN A NEW BATTERY, CLEANED THE TANK AND LINE, AND ADDED TWO FUEL FILTERS (ONE BEFORE AND AFTER THE FUEL PUMP WITH NEW HOSES). THE EXHAUST WAS REPLACED AS WELL AS THE WHEELS AND TIRES. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES GOOD AND CAN BE ENJOYED THIS SUMMER AND WOULD MAKE A GOOD WINTER PROJECT.
THE BODY IS IN AMAZING CONDITION WITH ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL PANELS AND 80% OF ITS ORIGINAL PAINT. THE HOOD WAS PAINTED AS WELL AS A COUPLE OF AREAS SPOT PAINTED. THERE IS A DENT IN THE R. FRONT FENDER AND ON THE WHEEL OPENING OF L. FRONT FENDER. THE FLOORS, ROCKERS, AND DOORS ARE RUST FREE. THE TRUNK FLOOR IS SOLID AND JUST HAS SOME SURFACE RUST. VERY LITTLE RUST ON BOTTOM TIPS OF QUARTER PANELS AND A COUPLE LITTLE SPOTS ON THE WHEEL OPENINGS AND IN THE LOWER FRONT FENDERS. I WOULD NOT BUY ANY SHEET METAL EXCEPT MAYBE A 422 HOOD. I HAVE DONE PAINT & BODYWORK FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND WITH THE LITTLE BIT OF RUST THAT IS ON THIS CAR I WOULD JUST MAKE PATCH PANELS.....UNLESS YOU HAVE THE MONEY BUY NEW QUARTERS TO PATCH A COUPLE OF SPOTS THERE IS NO NEED TO SPEND THE MONEY. A VERY SOLID CAR!!!!
THE TOP NEEDS RECOVERED, BUT IS ALL THERE EXCEPT FOR THE BACK WINDOW. THE TOP'S SWITCH AND MOTOR WORKS GOOD. THE TOP WENT UP AND DOWN WHEN I GOT IT, BUT IT HAS A FLUID LEAK AND WILL NEED REPAIRED. IT DOES HAVE A NEW BOOT. THE ORIGINAL GLASS IS GOOD, EVEN THE WINDSHIELD.
THE CAR HAS 95,000 MILES ON IT AND THE ORIGINAL OWNER KEPT GOOD RECORDS IN A NOTEBOOK THAT WAS IN THE GLOVE BOX. THE LAST ENTRY WAS WHEN THE CAR WAS JUST UNDER 90,000 MILES. THE ORIGINAL MANUAL IS INCLUDED, BUT SNACKED ON A BIT BY SOME MICE (BUT NOT BAD). THERE WAS A NEW TRANSMISSION INSTALLED AT ONE TIME AND I HAVE THE WARRANTY BOOKLET, THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT IS NOT #'S MATCHING. POWER STEERING AND BRAKES WORK GOOD. A/C HAS A SMALL LEAK SOMEWHERE, BUT COMPRESSOR KICKS IN LIKE IT SHOULD.
THE PAINT AND BODYWORK IS ALWAYS THE MOST EXPENSIVE PART OF A RESTORATION. BUYING ONE WITH A SOLID ORIGINAL BODY WILL SAVE YOU THOUSANDS AND ALOT OF HEADACHES.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CALL 479-238-1122 OR 479-228-4304. I CAN ALSO DELIVER THIS CAR IN A INCLOSED TRAILER WITHIN THE U.S. FOR $1.50 A LOADED MILE. THANKS, MIKE

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.
