1966 Oldsmobile 442 - Auto Ac Posi 455 Reclining Bucket Seats Power Antenna on 2040-cars
Huntsville, Alabama, United States
|
1966 Olds 442. Was originally Lucerne Mist (Blue) with deluxe blue
interior with reclining passenger bucket seat and power antenna.
Original automatic, A/C car with 3:23 locking rear end. You don't see
those options very often in 1966 cars. Has had a 1970 Olds 455 from a
442 in it for quite awhile. I was told it ran when parked. You'll want
to rebuild it anyway. The 70 Olds 455 was rated around 365 - 400 hp from
the factory. This will be a beautiful screamer when properly restored.
All the documentation is provided below and in the pics.
The body is straight but the car has rust in all 4 corners. The front floor pans and the trunk will need to be replaced. There is also rust in the corners of the front and rear glass. Most of the replacement panels you will need can be found online in the usual places. You may need a donor car for the trunk weatherstrip channels. All the glass is good except for the windshield. 2 of the wheel wells have rust and so does the radiator support. It will have to be replaced. The frame is solid. All the interior and interior trim is there with the car but the seats will need to be recovered, headliner, carpet, etc. The seats are original. Someone has just covered over the headrests and disconnected the recliner. The stainless trim is all there and straight. Just needs to be polished. Both bumpers are good. They have a couple dings that need to be hammered out and rechromed. There is no title. Alabama law does not require a title for vehicles 35+ years old. Car will come with a bill of sale. *****YOU CAN VIEW A DETAILED SLIDESHOW BELOW.***** Two of the pics show Lucerne Mist paint and Deluxe Blue Interior on other cars.

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The 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?
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.
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.
