 1972 Olds Delta 88 owned by 3 generations
  • Stored on the side of the house with monthly starts for about the last 15 years.
  • Interior has been reupholstered including the carpet.
  • I installed an after market cruise control and air shocks that is off a Cadillac and raises the rear automatically according to a sensor under the car. 
  • Radio has been replaced with a cd player.
  • The brake light is on and will need servicing.
  • The power locks might need servicing and lubing.
  • Transmission does leak and has since the day I bought it. Possibly a bad seal on the front of the transmission.
  • Don't remember any noises when it goes over bumps, but will include a box of parts containing a few dash parts and the front bushings for the front end.
  • I know for sure it has a new radiator and a while back I replaced the compressor, but will probably need charging.
  • Battery is dead at the moment and will need a new battery and master cylinder first if you are going to drive this home.  
  • Considering its a 41 year old car it looks pretty good. Car is under a tarp in the back yard. The back window will need some attention for rust and leaking. Although it has various small rust spots that can be rubbed out and minor scratches and dents here and there,  from far away with a good wax the car doesn't look to bad. It gets more looks because of its sheer size and length. One of the smoothest cars I have ever driven but must sell since I own to many cars.
  • I bought the tires new at Costco but only took a few trips after that.
  • Includes owners manual.
  • Please examine the pictures and take a look at the youtube video showing the car runs.
  • I have done my best to describe this car to the best of my knowledge so be sure to ask any questions if you need clarification.

Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

The 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 2014

General 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.

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Ever 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.
