Hi you are looking at a VERY NICE ALL ORIGINAL 1973 OLDSMOBILE DELTA 88 CONVERTIBLE 3 Owner car, the second to the last owner kept the car for a little over 34 YEARS! 350 V8 with 3 speed automatic transmission, this delta 88 has power steering, power brakes, factory AC installed but NOT CONNECTED and a working power convertible top with burgundy vynal parade cover. Overall this is a VERY NICE car with recent tires, carburetor, fuel pump, hoses timing chain, oil pump, and fan clutch! All improvements listed have less that 200 miles of use. The interior is in very good almost amazing original condition with no cracks in the dash or on the seats or side door panels .Check out the aftermarket 8 track radio in the dash! The body and under side are very clean with no rust holes of any kind and the underside panels are ORIGINAL Oldsmobile. The engine starts right up with no issues and the car go's down the road with no shaking or suspension problems. The transmission shifts smoothly, and the brake pedal stops the car on a dime. The engine bay is a little dirty but will clean up nicely with some ambition a couple of cans of east wood black and a 6 pack of beer. The trunk is in the same condition. This is not a perfect car but it easily can be made into one with a little time and effort. IT IS A EXCELLENT DRIVER FROM THE PAST and will look good at any local car show or as a weekend fun driver!
ENJOY!
LOW RESERVE.

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.
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.
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.
