We have a 98% RUST FREE Cutlass that we have done alot of work to in the past twelve months.  The car is originally orange with a white top and white interior; but over time it has all been switched over to black.  The car runs very smooth and has never left me stranded anywhere.  It is originally from California and we will include the "blue plates" with the car.  The only minor rust we see is behind the left rear tire - see photo.  The trunk and floor boards are very solid.  All of the following work has been done in the last 1,000 miles:

  • Engine was professionally rebuilt at Fultz's Machine Shop.  The crank and rods are .010/.010 and the pistons were .030 over.  All surfaces and bearings are new or freshly machined - see photos. 
  • The cam, intake, air cleaner and carb are all edelbrock performer series with the expensive intake and electronic 600 cfm carb which works great.
  • New fuel pump, water pump, distributor, coil, transmission lines and hoses.
  • Transmission was serviced and seals replaced at Desert Transmissions
  • New bushings, ball joints, springs, center drag ling and shocks in the front....new springs in the back

Here is what the car needs:

  • Air conditioning and heater core complete system. 
  • The headlights turn off when you hit the bright light switch.
  • New fan clutch and maybe a few various knick knack trim pieces
  • The tires on the back look like new, but the fronts are worn

The paint has sat under a tree for awhile and has marks from leaves...it looks OK from a distance, but could use a paint job.  The interior is OK, but the driver's seat could definitely use new foam.  If you want, just drive it as-is for awhile - we get compliments everywhere we go! 

The Pioneer Stereo, Boston Acoustics amp and Kicker speakers ARE NOT INCLUDED.  If the auction hits $7,000 we will include them - they sound great.

Only selling it because we are buying an old school Bronco.  No trades, no end earlies and no BS please - Thanks!

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.

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.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General 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.
