1970 Oldsmobile Toronado. It is front wheel drive for those of you not familiar with these cars. Mechanically, it runs great, transmission works great. Lots of power. There are cosmetic issues that will need to be addressed, such as the vinyl top seam on top is torn badly. There may be rust under the vinyl top, I'm not sure. But just in case, be advised that there may be rust. The inside is in really good shape. Recently I replaced the front bumper. The old one was rusted. It is not properly aligned and will need to be adjusted and I think there were maybe a couple of bolts that did not line up properly and were not installed. I purchased the car in November 2010. The mileage was 96,637, which I believe to be true but have no proof. I replaced the starter with a rebuilt one. I think it has a lifetime warranty, not 100% sure. It was replaced two days after I got it home on 11-15-2010. I replaced various bulbs, wiper blades, changed oil, filter, Amsoil. Amsoil is a premium synthetic motor oil. On 12-7-2010 I had both front half shafts (axles) replaced along with the front wheel bearings. On 3-10-11 I replaced the front shocks. Changed oil and filter (Amsoil) again at 96,780 miles on 4-16-11. On 5-19-11 I had both front calipers replaced and I am almost positive that the brakes were replaced at the same time. I don't have it listed but I think I had the car tuned up as well. I am trying to be complete on the positive things as well as the negative. I do not want any misunderstandings. To my knowledge the car runs great. I would not be afraid to take off cross country in it except for the fuel prices. The tires have good tread but have not been replaced by me so they may be old and weathered. That is the only thing that I know of that may be a problem. When I bought the car it had several chrome pieces under the hood and I believe may have been a show car in earlier days. So, in summary, the car runs and drives great. Will need some body work and paint job to be done by you if you so desire. Please look at the pictures carefully. I am not trying to hide anything and will try and get pictures that show any and all flaws. If you have questions, please contact me and I will answer them to the best of my ability. Thank you. I just finished taking the pictures and have a few more things to add to this listing. The radio is missing. There is at least one tear in the bottom of the front seat. I have installed a new battery recently but don't remember when. It is a high cold cranking amp battery from Wal-Mart and has their warranty. It was an expensive one. Also, I doubt the air conditioner works. I don't remember trying it but it is probably out of freon. I haven't checked, but to be on the safe side I will assume that it is empty. There is an exhaust leak. Muffler may have rusted from sitting or may be an exhaust manifold gasket. I do not know. Also, at the end of the auction a $250.00 non refundable deposit is required. You can use Pay Pal if you like. The remainder is to be paid in cash on pick up of the car. This car is sold as. No guarantees. I can't think of anything else. Again, if you have questions, just ask.
