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

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.

Ferrari FF pitted against Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser in crazy Generation Gap comparison

Thu, 13 Nov 2014

The 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.
