1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible on 2040-cars

Year:1969 Mileage:103000
Location:

Franklin Square, New York, United States

Franklin Square, New York, United States

My 1969 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Convertible was purchased by its original owner at Jim Letts Oldsmobile on Peachtree St in Atlanta GA in 1969 it then spent the next 44 years in Buford GA in the same family until it was sold to me by the original owners  grandson

It is a great original  Southern car.  It is unmolested and unmodified just well maintained over the years.

I have original owners manual and warranty card.

Features

350 Rocket  Engine Quadrajet 4bbl Carburetor.

A/C car.. blows cold

Bucket seats and column shift.. Interior is a time capsule..  all original upholstery, minimal wear .

Original GM deluxe seat belts

I added a reproduction GM Deluxe seat belt in back. I have original belt

Car was repainted in its original Glade Green factory color( GM Code 57)  in mid 80’s from what original owners family recalls,  It is showing its age

 Power top was leaking from the pistons when I got it, so I pulled the top cylinder bolts which allow the top to raise and lower manually.

The top material is pulling away from the seams by the door frames, probably can be sewn at an upholstery/top shop,  Car is garaged and  I only drive the car in perfect weather so I just leave it down.

I have 4 stainless steel wheel well moldings not currently  installed but included in sale.

 Even though this is a southern car it does have surface rust in usual A body spots.  Trunk is rock solid, as is trunk drop downs, floors super solid.

I replaced the 215/75/14 tires and original hubcaps that were on the car at purchase  with a  set of SSII (14x6) wheels which I had soda blasted and painted in the correct Argent Grey color  and 4 new 225/70/14 Cooper Cobra radials, they have less than 200 miles on them.  Both sets of wheels and tires go with the car.

I recently have had a full tune up, all new seals and gaskets installed, engine cleaned and detailed. I added the 442 grilles, replaced the old dull T3 Headlights with 4 new sealed bulbs

New Bosch battery with 3 year warranty installed March ‘14

Brakes serviced, with new shoes and cylinders. Brake flush, wheel alignment

New gas shocks

Lifetime warranty form Mavis Tire on all work.

This is a truly amazing preserved original southern car, one that you can get in and drive anywhere.. New owner has plenty of options on what to do... Do nothing and just drive and enjoy.. or do a "driving restoration" while you enjoy the spring-Fall... or Do full body off restoration and triple your investment in this car. With the price of 442's, Chevelle's, and GTO's going through the roof, this is a perfect way to get into a GM A body at a fraction of the cost.

Car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end auction early.

I will assist buyer with shipping.

I require $1000 deposit made by paypal within 24hrs of auction end, transaction must be completed within 3 days.

 

New York State does not issue titles for cars prior to 1973, so the car will be sold on a bill of sale and signed registration card.

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.

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.
