1974 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme With Hurst Olds Parts Project on 2040-cars
Greensburg, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I bought this car in 2007 as an all original 65K mile garage kept car to be my wife's daily driver. In the fall of that year she hit a deer, spun off the road and over a bank and came to rest in a creek bed with a big oak tree caving in the roof. So... the car sat covered up in my yard while I was trying to decide what to do with it. I had intentions of fixing/restoring it some day after I completed a couple other project vehicles I was currently working on so I began to stock pile parts for it. A couple years later I became in need of a winter vehicle so I jacked the roof out good enough to make the glass fit and started driving it again. I drove it for 2 winters but now it is just sitting in my yard again. I have accumulated a lot of very nice parts for this car but now I find myself more in need of cash than in need of this car. Car comes equipped with Edelbrock Performer intake, Flowtech headers and Summit dual exhaust. The last year that I drove it I had installed new front brake pads and rotors, brake booster and replaced the point distrubutor with a billet HEI distributor. Used parts I have for it: grills, grill moldings, parking lights, headlight bezels, wheel well moldings, vinyl top trim moldings, rocker moldings. NOS parts: Moog front springs, sail panel emblems, 1 door molding, chrome rear sway bar and brackets. I have a rechromed lower front bumper. I have a working dash clock and the bezel to add it. Hurst Olds parts: Louvered hood, T-top roof, Hurst Hatches, swivel buckets, console, dual gate shifter. I still have all of the original parts from this car that will go with it if the buyer wants them: intake mani, exhaust mani's, air cleaner, hood, distributor. Floors and trunk of this car are solid. Only rust is a couple small spots on the bottom of the drivers quarter panel, front of the hood and the trunk lid is shot. 350 engine and turbo 350 trans run good. Transmission was rebuilt before I put it back on the road for a winter car. Brakes are a bit suspect (right rear seems to be stuck) so I would recommend trailering this if you have to transport it. I have a set of 15 inch rally wheels that I would negotiate a price for if you win this auction. E-mail any questions.

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.
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?
