1977 Cutlass Supreme Brougham 350V8

I am the original owner.  With the exception of the first two years, this car has been parked in a garage whenever it wasn't being driven.  This was the last year for the larger rear wheel drive Cutlass Supreme. 


Exterior

Light blue paint with white accent stripes painted on from the factory and white body side mouldings.  Paint is in very good condition.  There is some minor rust on top of the door sills and one small spot on the right rear fender.  The car was undercoated by the dealer when I purchased the car.  The rear bumper has some rust through.  It has a white vinyl Landau top which is in very good condition.  There is a lot of chrome trim.  It is on the grille, down the center of the hood, around the windows, along the door threshold, on the bumpers and around the wheel openings.  The wheels have chrome trim rings.  The wheels are the Super Stock III model from the factory.  The tires have a lot of tread remaining.

Interior

The Brougham trim option provided light blue crushed velvet cloth seats with extra cushioning which is in excellent condition.  The front seats are a 60/40 divided bench style with a fold down center arm rest.  The original carpet was protected by floor mats, but there is one 3 inch tear.  This Cutlass has had a totally smoke-free environment.  The original AM radio was replaced by an AM/FM cassette tape player and the original speakers were replaced by Jensen 3" speakers in the front.  Jensen 6x9 oval speakers were added in the rear.  The dash has two very small 2 inch cracks in it.  It has a remote trunk release button in the glove box.

The air conditioning works fine.  It also has power steering and power brakes for easy handling.

Engine

The 350 cubic inch V8 with 4 barrel carberator is in running condition.  The battery is relatively new.  The radiator does have a leak but I understand that it can be fixed for about $200.  The transmission slips so the car is not considered driveable.  I can shift through the gears so I think it just needs an overhaul which I understand is typical for this transmission at this mileage.

Summary

This is a really beautiful car with lots of styling.  The NADA Guide Price Report puts the Average Retail Value of this Cutlass at $10,750.  Even the Low Retail Value is $5,280.  This Cutlass is located in the St. Louis, Missouri area. 
A deposit of $750 via PAYPAL is required within 48 hours of auction close by the successful highest bidder.

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.

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.

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.
