|
Here is a rare find from out west in Saskatoon, Sask. One family owned 1972 Olds Cutlass "S" 2 dr. hardtop with GM Documentation. All numbers matching!!! This car was built in the Lansing, Michigan Plant and purchased brand new at Peters Motors in Prince Albert , Sask. First time offered on EBay Motors. This car sat in a garage (barn find ) for years after the elderly lady parked it one day and passed away leaving to a member of her family who didn't know what to do with it. He didn't feel right as the other members of the family were excluded so he let it sit in his garage starting it periodically but never took it out and after many years had passed he decided to let someone else deal with it so this is why it has landed here on this site. Car is a factory ordered untouched or modified other then the new TA tires and SS1 wheels. The full caps are in the trunk and come with it. It was ordered with P.S. P.B. A/C, Rare P.W. AM radio, tinted windscreen, clock , factory floor mats which by the way are in great condition and still in the car. We have all the documentation showing her name on the warranty books, window sticker, protecta plate, and the documentation from GM to verify everything. Seals were replaced in the transmission , motor as they got dry and hard. A new fuel pump, gas , battery, plugs , wires, filters, gaskets, tires , brake hoses, oil, 4 new radial TA'S, weather strips, drums and shoes etc. we're all refreshed with new. All the glass ( no cracks or damage)and chrome are in very good condition. The dash has never been altered, cut or does it have any damage whatsoever. Ashtray has never been used. A non smoker. Car has never been in an accident and has all its original trunk and floors pans that have never been patched. It even has the original hose clamps and the key buzzer (still works)to let you know the keys are in the ignition. The carpet is unbelievably remarkable for its age . Showing a picture of trunk before and after. The mat was stuck to the bottom in a few places so it looks a bit messy ( sticky goo) but cleaned up and was re- spattered. The interior is all original including headliner , dash pad, carpet, door panels and seats and they are in very good condition. The carpet is unbelievable for original as are the other interior pieces. One armrest needs to be repaired ( see photo) but you can buy a new pair from Year One for about $50. Or the pad for $30. This car was pampered from new. Decked out in a beautiful Matador red ( original color) with white seats. You don't see many in this condition. Equipped with the dependable Rocket 350 cu. in. Motor, Bid with confidence. I have sold a couple cars from the collection on this site and have had excellent feedback from all the people that have purchased. Made sure they were picked up with condition reports, all pertinent info with clear title in the car . I require $750. 00 deposit within 24 hours after winning the bid. Do not bid if you don't have the money. If you have a "0 " rating you must contact me first otherwise I have the option to remove you from bidding. I reserve the right to remove the ad from this auction site if someone wants to do the Buy it Now option and / or if it sells locally. You are more then welcome to have the car checked out before buying. Call me or email for additional information. I will gladly help in anyway to have the vehicle ready for pickup and can give you contact people to have it delivered to your door. Things that are not perfect: 1. Could use a new pad on drivers door pull. See photo 2. Small crack on the right side rear light. See photo 3. New trunk mat would make it look better. 4. New spare TA for trunk. 5. Clock stopped working. Obviously nothing that has to be done to prevent one from enjoying the car. Bid with confidence on this original, unmolested 72 Cutlass "S " Email or call for more information.

eBay Find of the Day: 1976 GMC Motorhome is a jolly green giant
Wed, 18 Jun 2014If 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.
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.
