1971 Olds Cutlass Supreme Convertible SX 1 of 357 built Y-79 performance package 455,  turbo 400, with less than 800 miles on the rebuilt engine, No leaks. This was a one family owner car, I bought from the original owners grand daughter. She had the engine completely rebuilt (Spitfire of Denver machine) to the tune of $7000.00 and yes, it was too much but it runs excellent. The carburetor was swapped out  in favor of a re-manufactured but original is included and its whats in the back seat. This car is and was dirty because it had sat for 7 years after the work was completed. I wiped off a portion of the valve cover only but wasnt going to try and fool anyone with a complete detail. Its been sitting but I changed out the gas, plugs, and fuel pump and this car flat out runs. You can step on the gas and without hesitation it will spin the back tires as a rebuilt 455 should with only an rv cam installed. Has rally steering wheel, sport mirrors, rally gauges ( tic toc tach and gauge package tach works as does oil and temp, gas is pegged at full) bucket seats and center console. The power top works going down but you need to help it going up. Air conditioning does not work as there is a breach in the line, power steering and power disk brakes. This car runs and drives excellent with no pulling to one side squeaks and or rattles but needs as you can tell a cosmetic restoration. A nice smooth ride and what you expect from an Oldsmobile. I will add a photo of the trunk when my mechanic friend opens it as the key did not work and it was drilled to gain access to the mechanism. There is also no rust in the trunk as there is none in the floor or frames. There was rust that looked like was previously repaired around the rear wheels and maybe a little bit below the front fenders. No tears in the seats, no ashtray door, CB comes with the car via the 70s, and whoever put the speakers in the door didnt think things through and had to take off the window handle to roll it down (included). Rear bumper needs to be replaced ($324 on here) or rechromed and top needs replaced. real glass rear window is good. Like I said it needs cosmetic but mechanically, its is very very solid and strong! Any questions please ask, look at the photos, and or know that you want the car before you bid. Considering the rarity of the car, I should not be selling at NO RESERVE but want it out of my garage because I dont drive it, dont want to restore it as I drove it as is, and need the space.

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.

This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

The 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?

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.
