This is a great starter muscle car. I have over $14,000 in this car. Unfortunately I paid $6000 for it, thinking it was in better shape than it was and money issues has halted forward progress. The car had a new convertible top with zip out glass window, new carpeting, new seat coverings, and had the trunk redone and the underside of car cleaned up nicely and painted. The car was in primer hiding some issues with the body.
I have put 2 new rear quarter panels on and purchased an all fiberglass 442 hood, rear spoiler, and 2 new bumpers (rear with exhaust cut outs). I have the original bumpers which are very solid just need re chromed, they have light fixtures and brackets as well. I also have the original hood which appears to be in excellent shape.
The car has had a lot of engine work done. The engine was taken apart and hot tanked, inspected for internal damage. It has a new small cam, electronic ignition, rebuilt Edelbrock 4 barrel carb, rebuilt chromed alternator, new cables and wiring under the hood, new headers and dual exhaust, new disc brakes, new brake and tranny lines, new shocks, new battery, and so much more.
The car has original window sticker with all the added options. It has 350 rocket engine with the 350 Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission, power steering, power windows, and power front disc brakes. It runs and sounds great!
It has a bracket for air conditioning, but no compressor. It needs wiring work under dash, one hydraulic cylinder for convertible top needs replaced or repaired, need interior door panels, need front inner wheel liners, both lower fender panels should be replaced, and probably a lot of other minor repairs. The trunk lid and passenger door skin needs repaired or replaced, I was going to replace, but I believe can be repaired. I have a lot of parts not on the car, new rear light housing and lenses, chrome parts, and etc.
This is an awesome car, just needs a new owner to finish the job. If you have any questions, need more pictures, or want to check it out let me know.
Thanks
Larry

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.
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.
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?
