Available now is a head turning muscle car convertible. This is a fully optioned car with factory air conditioning, power steering, power brakes,power convertible top, posi-traction, tinted windshield, FM radio, arm rest, back up & courtesy lights, etc. The factory transmission was a 2 speed automatic. The car has been upgraded to a 4 speed hydromatic. The handling characteristics were improved by replacing the outdated front suspension. Elbach Racing tubular control arm conversion kit and disc brake conversion kit has been recently installed. Oversize anti sway bars front and rear. The rear suspension has also been treated with new springs, shocks,and brakes. These upgrades much improve handling, cornering and stopping performance. New master cylinder, carburetor,and tci distributor furthered the performance.
In 46 plus years many things require attention. For example, the seat padding has been replaced at the upholstery shop. The window regulators have been cleaned adjusted, and greased. The convertible top and rear window have been replaced.
After hearing car owners at Florida car shows complain about overheating issues, I know I needed to purchase a muscle car with factory a/c.
After market air conditioners added to muscle cars often times cause overheating problems. All the components of this factory a/c system were designed for functionality and longevity-a must here in the south. That is why this car stays cool in stop and go driving on the hottest days for as long as required. There is no detonation or poor performance at idle and take off. Also, no hesitations or choppy performance during full throttle accelerations.
My only problem before purchase was finding a 60's muscle car with factory a/c-a fairly scarce combination. Without turning the purchase into a career long move the closest I could come was this one which had the 442 package (an option in 1967) added after manufacturing. The comparisons are identical. The factory option netted 350 hp. as compared to the 320hp. rating of this car. However, the new edelbrock 4 barrel, hei ignition, and performance magnaflow exhaust evens the score. In fact the removal of side trim enhances the style. This is especially evident when parked next to 442's with factory trim.
The wheels are Oldsmobile rally ss. The seat belts are period correct deluxe with retractors. ( rear seat belts are about to be installed)
The 2 1/2 inch Magnaflow dues exhaust w/chrome tips provides for correct muscle car sound and appearance.
Unfortunately health issues have set in disallowing full appreciation of this stunning vehicle.
Any questions regarding this vehicle are welcome. |

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.
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.
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.
