This is a relisted auction, The last winner didn't realize its a 4 door. Please don't make that mistake. Up for auction is my 1956 Oldsmobile Super 88 with 85000 original miles. Originally a mid-west car, this car has been in my family for almost 20 years. This car is so cool and really fun to drive. Gets tons of attention everywhere it goes. It is slightly lowered in the rear with lowering blocks and stock height in front. The engine is the original 324 V8 with very recent work done including new cam, lifters, pushrods and timing chain. This car was fitted with A/C though it may need to be charged. The 3 speed Jetaway trans was rebuilt a few years ago. There is no rust anywhere on this car, and I mean NO RUST EVER. The interior was recovered and looks great. That includes the front and rear seats, door panels and headliner. There is also a hidden modern radio in the glove box. Outside you'll find two tone grey and silver repaint with Hot Rod style flames. The tires are WIDE WHITE bias ply with good tread with 57 Cadillac style hubcaps. On the rear is an aftermarket continental kit . It is bolt on, so it could easily removed if it's not your taste. Dummy spots and lake pipes. There are some small imperfections on this car as you'd expect from a driver. They include windshield chips and delimitation, some very small scraps and scratches in the paint and side trim. This car has been driven regularly and has seen many several hour round trips out of state and back with no problem at all. It pulls sightly to the right when breaking. It's not n issue but the front brakes will need attention. This is such a great car and we're sad to see it go. Please feel free to ask any questions, I'll do my best to accurately answer them. Feel free to come look at the car in person before making a bid. I've done my best to describe this cars pluses and minuses. Thank you for looking and good luck. I reserve the right to end the auction early for a local sale. 484 319-8808 |

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.
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.
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.
