Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Generally in like-new condition with the exception of a small area of rust on the edge of the trunk lid and epoxy-patched at the back of front wheel fender (see pictures)."

I am the original, private owner of this rare survivor, meaning that it has never been rebuilt. It has been garaged for the past 42 of its 43-year life, and I have the original window sticker. While it does have a bit of rust on the underside of the trunk lid, and a minor crack on one edge of the grill-work plastic, it is otherwise in like-new condition - which has to be seen to be believed!  


Some rust at the trailing edge of a front wheel-well had been epoxied and a dent on the rear panel professionally repaired many years ago.

It has the L74 model 350 (Rocket) - 4Bbl engine,with the M38 Turbo-Hydra-Matic-350 Transmission and a G80 Anti-Spin Rear Axle. It has the original cloth top with a glass rear window as well as the original vinyl top cover, which hides the top when it's in the down position.  

I've included many recent pictures, here, but this is a car that has to be seen to truly be appreciated. As you might be able to tell from the pictures, this vehicle has none of the wear indications that one might expect from a 43-year-old.  

It can be viewed in Lincroft, New Jersey by appointment only, appointments, and/or questions can be addressed to me either through e-bay or by leaving a detailed message at 7328428020.  

I would request a 10% deposit, either through Pay-Pal or by certified check within 3 days of the end of the auction, with full payment due within 14 days or at the time of pick-up or delivery, which ever comes first.

The successful buyer would be responsible for any shipping and delivery.  .   .

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.

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.
