A 1954 Oldsmobile 2 door hardtop Holiday running and able to drive, really nice paint, brakes work and none of the windows are broken, chipped or cracked.

Sound Good?  It is a great car.  The interior needs some attention, i.e, the rear back panel below the window needs to be redone, there is a crack in the front panel
upholstery on the passenger side, a little less than an inch, you have to roll up the passenger side window with a pliers and of course the handle is missing, as are 
both door panels.  The back windows are power and I have never touched them so I don't know if they work.  You can clean up the inside of this car and do some
chrome rub out as well as clean up the control panel in the front, a little bit of restoration inside, but there are no mechanical problems.  I drive it locally and have never
had any problems except for the electronic gas pump, which I replaced this month. I keep it covered most of the time.  The paint is 7-8 years new and has a few chips
here and there not very visible. I would't call this a project car because it runs great but the inside does need attention. The seats and overhead are great, floors, ok. 
As I stated above, the title is clear and current. The engine is the same one that was in it when we bought it, doesn't sputter or hesitate and has never given me any
reason to think there may be a problem.  The trunk is huge and needs some cleaning, tires are good.  It is a California car and has no rust underneath. Lights on the
outside work, not so on the inside.  That's pretty much it, of course if anyone has further questions please feel free to ask.  Buyer is responsible for pickup and transporting
to it's destination, I will help out here any way I can.  It is for sale because we are both older and have other cars that will probably go up for sale simply because we
cannot drive all of them like they need to be driven.  This one is in great condition and needs to be able to stay that way.  The plaque on the drivers side door frame says
OLDSMOBILE   549K4470.  Additional pictures if requested.

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.

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.

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.
