Letart, West Virginia, United States
|
This 1956 Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday 4 dr. hardtop is a nice solid car. Solid floors, pans and trunk (see pics). It has a correct 324 cu. in. engine, 4 bbl. carb., auto trans, power steering and brakes. Over $3000. spent on engine overhaul by machine shop. Bored .040 over, crank ground .010. Heads reworked for unleaded fuel. Work done right - no corners cut. All new components, water pump, belts, hoses and 4 bbl. carb. overhaul. Radiator boiled and cleaned. Fuel tank flushed and coated. Too much more to list. Bat wing air cleaner is still original. All front and rear bumper components have been rechromed and ready to install. Over $3000. spent! Fancy rear bumper is notched out for dual exhausts. Paint and body work complete. Base coat/ clear coat. Pics do not do justice. GM white has a pearl tint. Black has Prizmatic in paint which shows up different colors in the sun. Trim was removed and car was professionally painted by body shop (over $4000.) and looks awesome! Original headliner is in good condition and I have interior door panels for patterns. The original dash pad has no cracks. All stainless trim is in good condition. Two side window glasses are cracked and some of the potmetal has pitting which is common with cars of this age. All upholstery and carpeting need replaced. I have many extra parts along with the original factory owner and sales brochure. I also have the factory service manuel. This car runs and drives. I am just physically unable to finish this project. I have tried to describe this car honestly and correctly. Please feel free to call me for more information @ 304-895-3311. Thank you lor looking! |

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.
