1962 Oldsmobile F-85 Cutlass Convertible. 1st. Year Of The Convert. Survivor! on 2040-cars
Mountain View, California, United States
Hi, up for auction is my 1962 Oldsmobile F-85 Cutlass Convertible. This very nice first year convertible is in very nice condition. A very nice paint job and a beautiful period correct new interior. Everything works on the car and it runs strong, shifts smoothly due to a fresh rebuilt factory automatic transmission. The design of these cute little cars make them a favorite of Oldsmobile Collectors, but as we know few have survived. The aluminum V8 is a awesome motor and had a long production run- a testament to its advanced design and durability. Fitted with a power top, this fun little car is just the thing for top down summer time cruising. Standard engine was the new small V-8, all aluminum with a displacement of 215 cubic inches (which later became famous as the Rover V8 engine) With a two barrel carburetor, it was rated at 155 H.P. and 210 foot pounds of torque. Transmission was the newly introduced three-speed Roto Hydramatic. The F-85 Cutlass Convertible line-up was added September 1962!! If you are looking for an affordable 60's convertible that you don't see everyday, this is your car! Please look at the detailed pictures I have taken carefully, if there is a specific picture of the Olds you would like to see, please ask. If there is a specific question you have about the car, again, please ask. Feel fee to email me with any and all questions you may have or you can call me direct at (650)400-8836 The Olds is located here in the San Francisco bay area and is available to be seen and driven in person!! This is a neat little car that is a blast to drive. This is a driver, not a trailer queen, although the paint looks great, it is not perfect, again, this car is driven!! Body is straight, and the black body with the white convertible top just sets this car apart. Thanks for the interest, good luck on the auction and as always....Happy Bidding!! |

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.
eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant
Wed, 18 Jun 2014If 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.
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.
