1974 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme With Hurst Olds Parts Project on 2040-cars
Greensburg, Pennsylvania, United States
|
I bought this car in 2007 as an all original 65K mile garage kept car to be my wife's daily driver. In the fall of that year she hit a deer, spun off the road and over a bank and came to rest in a creek bed with a big oak tree caving in the roof. So... the car sat covered up in my yard while I was trying to decide what to do with it. I had intentions of fixing/restoring it some day after I completed a couple other project vehicles I was currently working on so I began to stock pile parts for it. A couple years later I became in need of a winter vehicle so I jacked the roof out good enough to make the glass fit and started driving it again. I drove it for 2 winters but now it is just sitting in my yard again. I have accumulated a lot of very nice parts for this car but now I find myself more in need of cash than in need of this car. Car comes equipped with Edelbrock Performer intake, Flowtech headers and Summit dual exhaust. The last year that I drove it I had installed new front brake pads and rotors, brake booster and replaced the point distrubutor with a billet HEI distributor. Used parts I have for it: grills, grill moldings, parking lights, headlight bezels, wheel well moldings, vinyl top trim moldings, rocker moldings. NOS parts: Moog front springs, sail panel emblems, 1 door molding, chrome rear sway bar and brackets. I have a rechromed lower front bumper. I have a working dash clock and the bezel to add it. Hurst Olds parts: Louvered hood, T-top roof, Hurst Hatches, swivel buckets, console, dual gate shifter. I still have all of the original parts from this car that will go with it if the buyer wants them: intake mani, exhaust mani's, air cleaner, hood, distributor. Floors and trunk of this car are solid. Only rust is a couple small spots on the bottom of the drivers quarter panel, front of the hood and the trunk lid is shot. 350 engine and turbo 350 trans run good. Transmission was rebuilt before I put it back on the road for a winter car. Brakes are a bit suspect (right rear seems to be stuck) so I would recommend trailering this if you have to transport it. I have a set of 15 inch rally wheels that I would negotiate a price for if you win this auction. E-mail any questions.

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.
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.
