1969 Oldsmobile Hurst Tribute Car on 2040-cars
Parker, Colorado, United States
|
This car was fully restored, inside and out. Finished about two years
ago and only driven approx. 1,000 miles since completed. The body and
paint are awesome, with a light silver metallic base coat and Corvette
red graphics with black pin striping, all covered with clear coat
finish. This is not a 20 foot paint job. This car will make anyone proud
to own and drive and present at car shows. It's capable of being a
daily driver or driving across the country.
The car drives better than it looks and it looks great. Powered by a 455 cubic inch big block with tons of power and a TH400 transmission. To complete the setup is a 12 bolt posi-traction rear end. The engine was restored by Colorado Custom Cylinder Heads. The transmission was also rebuilt and includes a firm shifting, shift kit. It has new headers and new dual exhaust. Also includes new battery, alternator, brake booster and master cylinder, new Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold and new Edelbrock 750CFM carburetor, and a new starter with new spark plug wires, new HEI distributor and a new fuel pump. New front windshield. The engine compartment is extremely clean. No oil leaks. The dual exhaust also sounds awesome. Car has power steering and power front disk brakes that have all been rebuilt, including the drums in the rear. The suspension was also restored with new shocks all the way around, new bushings and new rear coil springs. The alignment is perfect. Tires are all new and size of P235/60 R15. The new, black vinyl interior looks awesome and includes the very important Hurst dual gate, console shifter. The original radio is also installed. The car is an air conditioned car, but the unit has been removed, although I do have it in my possession and it will be included with the sale of the car. All of the plumbing is still present. A truly unique, one of a kind, tribute car that gathers lots of attention wherever it goes. |

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.
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.
