Sporty, mildly restored rare 1970 Olds Cutlass F85 post coupe "S" body type hardtop with strong-running Rocket 350 2bbl engine and transmission that shifts right on time. Great for a gear head that wants a light weight car to race or as a daily driver to take to the occasional car show. Car drives/handles well and makes no noises, has no smoke/leaks. Solid running car, perfect rumble to the exhaust. Numbers matching stock Rocket 350 2bbl engine and turbo 350 trans. Power steering and drum brakes. Non A/C car. Has dual exhaust and SS2 rally rims with raised white lettered tires. Body is a beautiful blue/aqua color in good shape and had a re-paint a few years ago. Has some dings and scratches and touch ups. Not perfect but paint and decals are good driver quality and clean looking. Body/hood/trunk lines are straight as an arrow. Frame and trunk pan solid and floors look good also. No rust to speak of on this car. Interior is in need of nothing. Car is all original stock, with an after-market radio with CD and auxiliary inputs mounted under center dash.

I'm happy to describe vehicle further or clarify any questions you may have. I welcome and encourage a third-party inspection and am more than willing to make vehicle available to an inspector at buyer's expense before the listing ends. This is a fun car and ready for a finished restoration or to be enjoyed as-is. For sale locally also, so I reserve the right to end the listing at any time. Any sale is final. Car is sold as-is with no warranties implied or expressed. Thank you for your interest. |

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.
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.
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.
