NO RESERVE! THIS IS IT!

I purchased this car in 2006. It has been garaged and not driven in

the rain. When I bought her she just had new Springs, Shocks, Dual

Exhaust, Tires, Brakes, Brake Cylinders, Brake Lines, Fuel Pump, Fuel

Filter, Carburetor and much more installed. I have since replaced the

Spark Plugs, Spark Plug Wires, Points, Distributor Cap, rotor,

condenser, vacuum advance, water pump, windshield washer fluid

pump, and more. I have only driven this car approximately 1,000 miles

since I bought her. I drove this car in the movie "The Lovely Bones"

with Susan Sarandon as my passenger. I was the driver and this is the

car that drove "Grandma Lynn"(Susan Sarandon) from the airport as

seen in the movie. It was quite an experience as you could imagine.

Her cigarette ashes are still in the ash tray as she was told by director

Peter Jackson take after take to make sure there was a long enough ash

on the cigarette as she exited my car. But now, it's time to sell some

toys, starting with the car from the movie. This car not only looks

stunning but runs and drives excellent with no issues! Serious

horsepower and torque. I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. I just

put in a new battery and I have the original equipment radio in excellent

condition in a box as shown. I just never got around to putting it in.

Their is no rust on this car. The condition of the exterior is excellent

with only one small smudge on the driver's side rear bumper. (See

picture, hardly noticeable) and some minor wearing on the interior

driver's side arm rest (easy repair). The interior is excellent and

everything works as it should including the air conditioning. The under

carriage also looks excellent. I also have included all receipts for new

parts and work done along with the owners manual, shop manual and

protect-o- plate.The car really does look much better in person. I would

be glad to answer any questions via email. I have done my best to

describe this vehicle as accurately as possible. My Ebay rating means

alot to me so please ask any and all questions before bidding. Bid with

confidence though as there are no disappointments here and you

would be hard pressed to find a 1969 Olds 98 Luxury Sedan in this

condition and with the movie bragging rights. This car is being sold "as

is" with no warranty expressed or implied. This car is also for sale

locally and I reserve the right to sell it as such. Thank You for looking

and Good Luck Bidding!

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

The 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?

eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

If you have a need to relive the 1970s, then here is the vehicle for you. This groovy blast from the past is a 1976 GMC Motorhome currently for auction in Florida on eBay Motors, and it is one green machine - just not in the modern sense.
The seller claims that this beast has had just two owners and has covered a mere 61,308 miles in its decades on the road. It's reportedly never been restored or repainted and comes with all of the necessary books and manuals. A 7.5-liter (455-cubic-inch) Oldsmobile V8 with a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission powering the front wheels propels this far-out RV, and the double set of rear wheels out back use a self-leveling air suspension to provide a cushy ride.
The purported low miles and good condition really make this GMC a stand out, though. The exterior combination of lime stripes and beige with just a touch of green is like nothing else on the road today. Plus, the polished bumpers and wheels make it all pop. Inside, it's even better with monochromatic green upholstery and shag carpet. It features everything you'd ever need on a long trip, including a bathroom, kitchenette and lots of seating. The only hint of modernization is an HD TV next to the stove, but its size is a perfect fit for the hole there.

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.
