1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass S Coupe 2-door 4.3l on 2040-cars

1977 Oldsmobile Cutlass 4.3L (260) with 5 speed manual transmission (have rebuilt 403 for sale on another auction that will drop right in or fit a Pontiac Trans Am etc.)
I have had the car for almost 2 years and love it. However, I need to sell for another project I am working on.
Gets great gas mileage for V8 with 5 speed on the thruway. Only 77,000 miles.
Was told this was a barn find. I bought it from a dealer in OH that picked it up, threw a decent paint job and new alternator on it etc. Since then I put a brand new brake power booster, used ralley gauges, new master cylinder, rear seat upholstery, package tray, door felts, rear shocks, cd player/radio with amp (should rewire as when amp is hooked up it drains battery). I have new rear springs but haven’t put them in yet.
Car starts and drives good but if I were to keep it I would put in the new rear springs I have as well as new front shocks and springs etc. tires are good. The paint job is a 10-20 foot car. There are some scratches and minor dings but the only real fix it needs is there is some damage to the driver rear wheel well. Go figure when I was towing it home from OH the tire blew and bent/cracked a little bit in front and rear bottom of the wheel well. A local shop said they would fix that and scratches for $350-400 and she’ll look like new again.
The dash has cracks and I would install a new carpet but people are always impressed that this 40 years old car is as good as it is. The frame is good, trunk has some minor surface rust but the engine compartment really clean. Overall good shape for all original 1977. I’m sure I might be missing something here or there so feel free to come down and check it out or email me with question.
Oh, probably needs a new battery because the power amp was draining it while in storage. For buy it now only I’ll put a new one in. Please call me with questions at 716-818-7163 or i can send more pics etc.
Thanks for looking and good luck!

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.
This Or That: 1980 Oldsmobile 442 vs. 1989 BMW 635CSi [w/poll]
Thu, 09 Oct 2014The last time I roped a coworker into an automotive debate, I lost. Resoundingly, I might add. Still, 2,385 voters chose to cast their lots for the Fiat 500 Abarth, as opposed to 5,273 choosing the Ford Fiesta ST, and so I can rest easy in the knowledge that at least 30 percent of you, dear readers, see things my way. I still like to think we have more fun, too.
My loss in the first round of our This or That series, in which two Autoblog editors pick sides on any given topic and then attempt to explain why the other is completely wrong, didn't stop me from picking another good-natured fight, this time with Senior Editor Seyth Miersma. Last time, our chosen sides were eerily similar in design, albeit quite different in actual execution. This time, our vehicular peculiarities couldn't seemingly fall any further from one another: A 1980 Oldsmobile 442 wouldn't seem to match up in comparison to a 1989 BMW 635CSi.
How did we come up with such disparate contenders? Simple, really. Seyth and I mutually agreed to choose a car that's currently for sale online. It had to be built and sold in the 1980s, and it had to be a coupe. The price cap was set at $10,000. The fruits of our searching labors will henceforth be disputed, with Seyth on the side of the Germans, and myself arguing in favor of the Rocket Olds. Am I setting myself up for another lopsided loss?
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.
