This car is sold for parts only. I bought the car two or three years ago, I believe. The car engine had jumped time and bent the push rods and who knows what other damage. The engine caught on fire, nothing major. Ruined the carburetor. I removed the heads to have them redone for another car and the heads needed more work and expense than I wanted to spend, they are in the trunk. They were cleaned and checked professionally. They have since rusted due to humidity. The transmission should be ok since it was being driven at the time. However I don't know this. I used the bumper on another car. Some parts are missing, the body is not in good condition. There is rust and at least one small dent on the driver side rear. Maybe more. I believe the car is rusted out under the rear seats. This car is not for rebuilding or to be restored. It is being sold for parts only. No title no guarantees. I am selling it cheap because I hate to junk it but I will if it doesn't sell. Check out the pictures. I believe most if not all of the glass is good. Seats are not, tires are not. They will not hold air if flat. I know that the left rear is still up. Don't know about the rest. If you have less than 10 positive feedback contact me before bidding. Deposit of $200.00 is due within 24 hours of auction end. I can deliver it within 100 miles or so of the southern Indiana area at additional cost to buyer. Otherwise buyer is responsible for pick up. No great hurry. A couple of weeks or so is fine. If you have questions, ask, I will try and answer. Again. No title, no guarantees of any kind as to the condition of the car. It is a GT or W34. I forget the correct term. Pretty rare. There is no space for no title on this listing so I put salvage. Again, there is no title with this car.

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.

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.

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.
