Always Garage Kept

 

 

This is my personal car that I bought approximately in 1992 as a 1-owner new car trade in. It is a very nice car that mostly sits in the garage and only comes out on nice days for little cruises to the Frosty Boy Drive In or whatever when time allows. It is not perfect but it is VERY nice or I wouldn't waste our time saying so.

I have kept this car under cover and inside my garage since day one while I drove a company car, so the mileage is very very low for this year vehicle. It has been taken care of and whatever needed fixed was or replaced. All the little things that go wrong have been replaced.

The tires are like new, it has a new battery. In 1996 at around 80,000 miles I had the transmission professional rebuilt because I got caught out in a surprised snow storm and I messed it up getting out of a snow/ice rut in the  city street. A couple years ago I had it professionally painted the original Oldsmobile color by a custom painter, The Amazing Ater, who made it better then new!! The interior is great and all the digital dash works fine. Everything seems to be working fine, but to be honest I have only drove it this year for these photos. It has dark tinted windows.

Also, I have done nothing to spruce it up or wipe shiney stuff on any of it. It came out of the garage for pics and right back inside. It just doesn't get used and I can use the space so it its for sale now.


What I do know is wrong if you can call it that, is the leather steering wheel could use some conditioner rubbed on it, the drivers power window works but is a tad bit slow and there might be a very small hardly noticeable ding somewhere around the bottom from some irresponsible parker..... and if I didn't bring it up, few would notice. I'm just trying to remember everything to be as honest as possible. 


I will consider offers but PLEASE do not waste our time attempting to low ball me, its not costing me anything and I love the car anyway. IF YOU want a very nice, loaded, great running great looking car this is it. 

 

 

Please check my feedback and know that this auction is written as complete and honest as possible. The vehicle is in really great shape, never abused, all you need is gas.

 

 

 

My car is also being offered locally so if does sell before the auction ends with no bids, I will delete this auction.

It can be picked up after paid in cash or a verifiable bank check has cleared. I will work with anyone who makes their own transportation arrangements, and I might even be able to drive south, maybe as far as Elizabeth Town, KY to help out with meeting for delivery?  If so cash will be necessary.

Otherwise it can be picked up here in Indianapolis. 

 

 

No Reserve and it is a GREAT car for this money regardless of any book prices.

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.

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

The 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?

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.
