1973 Hurst Olds Cutlass Oldsmobile Rare on 2040-cars
Altoona, Pennsylvania, United States
|
We purchased this car in May 2002. Came from the S/W part of USA. It is rare, only 1,097 were produced. This is a rust free car. When we brought it home and put it on a lift, the underneath looked like a new car. The former owner had started a restoration. He did some engine work, painted the car, put on new stripes, a new exhaust with the original H/O chrome tips. We put a new vinyl top on and had the front seats redone to spec. We replaced the carpet, intsalled a rebuilt 73 AM/FM radio, put in new speakers and package tray. Also had engine work done - new distributor, head gaskets,belts, tune up and battery. Replaced some of interior plastic pieces which were brittle due to heat in south. Car came with new BF Goodrich T/A radials. Tires are 85-90%good. Since purchasing the car, we have only put 2,000 miles on. The car is garage kept and drove only on sunny days. However, former owner let it sit outside under a tree and the stripes are now stained. There is 72,700 miles on the car as of 4/8/14. Everything is here on this car. No missing parts. All numbers match. Has the his/her dual gate shifter and swivel bucket seats. The optional digital tach is there & works - rare. Also has the original Oldsmobile Hood Ornament. This is rare because most fell off and were replaced with a H/O hood ornament. To make this car a show piece, it needs minor improvements. The car is not driven much anymore. The kids are grown and gone (they drove it to car shows) and the car just sits. We also have a 1973 Black H/O car that we bought for parts. The car is basically all there, but is a parts car. This Black H/O goes with the White H/O.

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.
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.
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.
