I bought this car in 2007 as an all original 65K mile garage kept car to be my wife's daily driver. In the fall of that year she hit a deer, spun off the road and over a bank and came to rest in a creek bed with a big oak tree caving in the roof. So... the car sat covered up in my yard while I was trying to decide what to do with it. I had intentions of fixing/restoring it some day after I completed a couple other project vehicles I was currently working on so I began to stock pile parts for it. A couple years later I became in need of a winter vehicle so I jacked the roof out good enough to make the glass fit and started driving it again. I drove it for 2 winters but now it is just sitting in my yard again. I have accumulated a lot of very nice parts for this car but now I find myself more in need of cash than in need of this car. Car comes equipped with Edelbrock Performer intake, Flowtech headers and Summit dual exhaust. The last year that I drove it I had installed new front brake pads and rotors, brake booster and replaced the point distrubutor with a billet HEI distributor. Used parts I have for it: grills, grill moldings, parking lights, headlight bezels, wheel well moldings, vinyl top trim moldings, rocker moldings. NOS parts: Moog front springs, sail panel emblems, 1 door molding, chrome rear sway bar and brackets. I have a rechromed lower front bumper. I have a working dash clock and the bezel to add it. Hurst Olds parts: Louvered hood, T-top roof, Hurst Hatches, swivel buckets, console, dual gate shifter. I still have all of the original parts from this car that will go with it if the buyer wants them: intake mani, exhaust mani's, air cleaner, hood, distributor. Floors and trunk of this car are solid. Only rust is a couple small spots on the bottom of the drivers quarter panel, front of the hood and the trunk lid is shot. 350 engine and turbo 350 trans run good. Transmission was rebuilt before I put it back on the road for a winter car. Brakes are a bit suspect (right rear seems to be stuck) so I would recommend trailering this if you have to transport it. I have a set of 15 inch rally wheels that I would negotiate a price for if you win this auction. E-mail any questions.

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.

Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

Ever 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.
