1972 442 convertible (tribute); This is not a Barrett Jackson Car! It is a great cruise night car that runs, looks and drives great! The car gets great attention and thumbs up every time I take it out. You will need to add 20 minutes to every trip to the convenience store due to the people who want to check out the car and talk about the one that got away when they were younger! I drive this car 200 miles round trip to the beach every weekend in the summer (weather permitting).

Everything on the car works as it should; I would not hesitate to drive this car across country with the AC on! The body and paint were done about 4 years ago and still look good. There is no rust on the car or frame, the floors and trunk are in good shape.There are some minor chips on the finish, the gaps between the quarters and the doors are not perfect, but like I said, it is a driver and the price reflects the condition. you could not build this car in this condition for what I want to get out of it. The reserve is very reasonable. Please look at all of the pics and ask questions before you buy the car. I would recommend a third party inspection of the car and will work with your inspector to get it done. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, I will work with your shipper and can provide a good company that I have worked with. E-mail me with questions or call my cell before 9:00pm eastern time (484) 951-1363; Bob.

The Bad; the top has one tear on the drivers side; the read window is glass and is only one year old. The convertible lift cylinder broke and the ram went through the roof over the winter. I have since replaced both lift cylinders, the top pump and the line kit. The hole was repaired and does not leak. The sealer that they put on the outside of the top is wearing thin, I will have more applied this weekend.

350 rocket engine and 350 trans with shift kit; the tires chirp when it shits into second; both rebuilt by previous owner. I do not have receipts but I can send a video of the car running and driving, the car has a mild cam and a edelbrock 600 carb. Hurts dual gate shifter, AC, newer brakes, master cylinder and front end parts, new brake lines, new radiator, newer dual exhaust system. The interior is about 3 years old and has no rips or tears. All of the interior lights and switches work. I also replaced the convertible top switch when I did the cylinders (real pain in the butt)!

I do not have to sell this car; do not call with low ball offers; I just finished restoring a 1979 Trans Am and I only have time to drive one of them. I can send a pic of the T/A next to this car if you want verification

A $500.00, non-refundable deposit is required within 4 days of the auction ending. Final payment is required within 8 days of the auction ending. I don't care how you pay for the car but it will not go onto the trailer until the money is in my bank account. I have the title in hand and the car is ready to go.

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.

Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

The 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 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.
