Here ya go Toronado Fans! This is a pretty rare 1967 STANDARD Toronado with only 19K miles. Second owner car and stored since 1970. Less than 1500 miles have been put on this car since 1970, most of which have been in the last few years for car shows and pleasure rides. This is an early production car, 2,047th off the line in '67 and of that, a mere fraction were Standard Models like this one, through out the entire model year. 1967- STD 394877M6xxxxx 1,770 made. 1967-DLX 396877M6xxxxx 20,020 made. 21,790 total produced in 1967 (the LOWEST production year of all Toronados). What makes this a Standard is basically the interior trim level. Of Note: there are NO rear door handles, NO center arm rest, unique interior door trim, and oddly matched carpet and interior trim color. It has only a handful of options: 6-Way power FULL Bench seat (not Strato), Cornering Lights, Rear Defogger (fan type), black vinyl top, and tinted windows. It is equipped with drum brakes ans am AM radio. Other than that, no power accessories and NO A/C. This is a bizarrely optioned car!! This car was purchased from Krause Oldsmobile (Milwaukee) circa 1970. It was a local lease/corporate trade in when my Dad eyeballed it on the lot and snapped it up. I will not bother or bore you the history of the Toronado and all the technical jargon here, as I assume that you found this auction because you already know about it's background and are looking for one. This is an amazingly straight, tight, and 98% ORIGINAL car! The only thing done to it was a new pitman arm (last month) and has been retro'd with 1966 Chrome Rims and dog dishes. The OEM Turbine wheel covers are in the trunk (average condition). The water/fuel/oil pump are original as well as the alternator and carb and never touched. Not even the valve covers have never been off the engine. Krause Olds did a crappy engine fluff/detail for the lot, but we left it AS IS, warts and all for all these years. I've tried to post pictures of all the aspects of the car I could. Yes, there is storage rash and dirt from it living in an unheated garage for all these years, but no rust other than typical surface underneath and a wee bit under the rear quarters. Chrome is VERY nice, but the tail panel has some pitting. I have a NOS NIB tail panel available separately. You be the judge from the pictures. The car can be seen/driven during the auction period and is located 45 miles north of Milwaukee, WI. Call or email me: Sparkman@wi.rr.com 414-447-7500 for more info if needed. I will add more information as requested by prospective inquires. HAPPY BIDDING! |

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.
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.
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.
