We have a 98% RUST FREE Cutlass that we have done alot of work to in the past twelve months. The car is originally orange with a white top and white interior; but over time it has all been switched over to black. The car runs very smooth and has never left me stranded anywhere. It is originally from California and we will include the "blue plates" with the car. The only minor rust we see is behind the left rear tire - see photo. The trunk and floor boards are very solid. All of the following work has been done in the last 1,000 miles:
- Engine was professionally rebuilt at Fultz's Machine Shop. The crank and rods are .010/.010 and the pistons were .030 over. All surfaces and bearings are new or freshly machined - see photos.
- The cam, intake, air cleaner and carb are all edelbrock performer series with the expensive intake and electronic 600 cfm carb which works great.
- New fuel pump, water pump, distributor, coil, transmission lines and hoses.
- Transmission was serviced and seals replaced at Desert Transmissions
- New bushings, ball joints, springs, center drag ling and shocks in the front....new springs in the back
Here is what the car needs:
- Air conditioning and heater core complete system.
- The headlights turn off when you hit the bright light switch.
- New fan clutch and maybe a few various knick knack trim pieces
- The tires on the back look like new, but the fronts are worn
The paint has sat under a tree for awhile and has marks from leaves...it looks OK from a distance, but could use a paint job. The interior is OK, but the driver's seat could definitely use new foam. If you want, just drive it as-is for awhile - we get compliments everywhere we go!
The Pioneer Stereo, Boston Acoustics amp and Kicker speakers ARE NOT INCLUDED. If the auction hits $7,000 we will include them - they sound great.
Only selling it because we are buying an old school Bronco. No trades, no end earlies and no BS please - Thanks!

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The 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?
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.
Jay Leno bangs up his own Toronado in GT6
Wed, 11 Dec 2013Ever 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.
