1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Convertible Not A 422 on 2040-cars
Elderton, Pennsylvania, United States
1971 Oldsmobile Cutlass Convertible. A very nice example of a very popular car. This car came from the factory with buckets seats and his and her console mounted shifter. Also has factory air but I am not sure that it works. Everything is hooked up but when it is driven the top is down. Car has four new BF Goodrich radials mounted on the original ralley wheels. The paint, although not original (car left the factory a burnt orange color) is in very good condition. It does have a few minor imperfections due to the car being driven on rare occasions. The bumpers are good, some stainless side trim has a bit of wear and to be show worthy could be replaced. The drivers side seat bottom has some seams that have come apart but the rest of the interior is in fine shape. The top is clean but is a little loose around the back window and a small tear. The underside of the car is good and the car operates as it should. The mileage appears to be original and the car has been well taken care of. At some point a tac was located in the dash were the clock should be and a set of under dash gauges were installed all else seems to be correct and original. This is your opportunity to own a highly sought after summer time top down driving experience. It is a good looking car. This is not my car as I am selling it for a friend of mine who owns a mechanic shop. This is his personal car and is reluctant to sell. It is the Olds, his 69 big block Chevelle SS or his wife. A wise man keeps his wife. You can buy one with dreams of restoring, buy one to trailer to shows or buy this one you can be proud to drive and enjoy and take to the local cruise ins. I encourage all potential owners to stop in and look the car over or have someone else look for you. The buyer is responsible for all transporting costs.. $500 deposit due within 48 hours of sale end

I noticed the car has front disc brakes, Coated headers, stainless steel dual exhaust, new fuel lines and new stainless steel brake lines. New within the past few years. The stickers are still on the exhaust. |

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.
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.
