Up for sale is a 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442. the Vin is listed above. This car is very nicely equipt and has many rare options. Options are sport mirrors, delux steering wheel, Air conditioning (which worked fine when parked so its not all hacked out), power windows, power door locks, cruise control (very rare), power trunk button, W-25 factory ram air hood (not aftermarket), factory rear wing (this is original 3 bolt wing and not aftermarket), disk brakes, boxed lower rear control arms and heavy duty anti sway bars (which look like they have been on the car since day 1). The interior of this car is amazing. the white seats and door panel are in excellent shape as well as the headliner, the console is in nice shape, the shift mechanism all works as it should. Im referring to the park locking mechanism (you cant shift out of park when key is out of ignition), most of these have been hacked and broken. The transmision is just rebuilt with a mild shift kit (you can chirp the gears if you manually shift), the engine appears to be original but I can't tell for sure. The casting number pictured and the head # are correct for this car, but it is almost impossible to read the stamped number on the block. this car runs and drives,, it will need a tune up, some trunk floor and misc body repairs before painting. This is not a perfect car but it is amazingly unmolested. Just about everything works,directionals, lights, reverse lights, horn, power windows, seat belt buzzer, etc. The frame is in great shape as well. This car is sold as is and has no warranty at all it is over 40 years old. Feel free to come inspect the car before bidding on it. this car is also going up for sale locally in a few days so I do reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells.

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.
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.
