If you are looking for a true investment quality 1970 Cutlass Convertible this car may be for you. If your looking for a bargain priced abused 7 owner gallon of bondo over shiny paint car for 12 grand this car is not for you. This car is for the enthusiast who appreciates a very original "survivor" quality Cutlass retaining all its original attributes and charisma. This Cutlass was purchased new in Santa Monica, CA in the fall of 1969 by Mr. Paul F. Duffy, for his wife Maude to drive on sunny days. Mrs. Duffy drove the car sparingly until 1987 when she could no longer drive the vehicle due to her moving into assisted living after her husbands passing, accumulating only 43,323 miles. At that point the car was given to her daughter Meridith Duffy, who in 1989 commissioned a high dollar repaint in honor of her recently deceased mother. Meridith and her Husband Tom then drove the car local car shows for several years in their native Minnesota only taking the car out on crystal clear, dry days. She always kept the car in a climate controlled garage as it was her and her mothers prized possession. In 1999, Meridith passed away. Her husband Tom could no longer bear to see the car on a daily basis and didn't have the heart to sell it, so in lieu of that he loaned the car to a local museum where it sat behind velvet rope, for 10 years. In the year 2010, the car has inherited to Tom's son and his wife who had the car pulled from the museum display and sent directly to Oldsmobile service and had the car completely gone through mechanically, ie. brakes, belts, hoses, every fluid flushed changed, any suspect seals, ect. to the tune of $5,700. Tom's son Ron told Oldsmobile everything from the wiper blades to the cigarette lighter must be working correctly, any bushings that needed replaced were replaced. The car was once again top notch road ready, the car had 48,000 miles on it. Due to relocation, the car now comes up for private sale for the first time...ever.

 

This is a real fire red 1970 Cutlass Supreme Convertible with a white power top, power brakes, and power steering. The body is completely rust free and has always been. The paint is excellent for being 25 years old. The interior is completely original and smells new and shows no wear whatsoever. Everything works on the car...period. The car runs and drives superbly, with no rattles or ununsual smoke. The frame and underside of the car are completely dry. The car is as well taken care of as any 1970 Cutlass sould possibly be.

 

The car is a beautiful dry, bondo free, get in and go car as one can be. This car has no excuses and makes no excuses. There is nothing to do on this car but enjoy it. It's 100% road trip ready.

 

The chrome is perfect, paint is as nice as it can be for it's age, interior is beautiful with no defects. (plastic was on rear seat until two years ago) Truly a choice piece.

 

I am a avid Oldsmobile collector and know this car in and out

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.

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.

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.
