UPDATE ON THE TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAK: I found the cause of the leak; it's a bad o - ring on what is called the "case connector" in the service manual. Very easily fixed if you take the transmission oil pan off to get to it, and that's simple enough (just remove a few bolts). I was going to fix it properly before the auction ends but I don't think I have enough time to get a new gasket for the oil pan here in time (since you have to replace the gasket any time you take the oil pan off). In the mean time, I have succeeded in SLOWING the leak temporarily by adding RTV high temperature silicon sealant around the outside of the case connector. It should help until you getting around to taking the oil pan off and changing the o-ring. For the gasket, a new o-ring, and new fluid you're looking at a $25-$30 fix max if you take the time to do it yourself. I've also added another picture to this listing so you can see the excellent condition of the underside of the car. This is the cleanest, straightest 1966 Toronado on ebay; an amazing survivor! Even the transistor radio still works!! I haven't seen one like this for sale in a long time. It's the perfect steal for someone who wants an awesome collectible, all-original car and doesn't want to feel bad about driving it around whenever they want. I have an all-original rust-free 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado I would like to sell. This is a California car with the original 1966 California plates (front and rear). The plates go for over $250 each on ebay. The front right bumper end was scraped on something by a previous owner. Interior is in good condition with the exception of a tear in the drivers side seat and a very small amount of cracked trim on the drivers side (pictured). The shifter knob is missing; unfortunately I don't have it. It came that way when I bought it last spring. This car is in amazing condition for its age, considering it has never been restored other than having been re-painted one time in the original color. I believe the previous owner also had the drum brake system refreshed. The power seats and power windows all work fine. I replaced the power window motor on the driver's side a couple weeks ago as it was getting weak. I've also had the starter rebuilt and replaced the weatherstripping on both doors and around the trunk. The a/c does not work but probably would with a recharge. I have the original owner's manual, as well as a full service manual. This is a front wheel drive car (the first made in America since the '37 Cord), and has a 425 cubic inch engine that produces in excess of 380 horsepower. The title is clear. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I will front no cost in getting this vehicle to you. I also have this item for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end this auction at any time prior to its close. Thanks for looking! Please message me with any questions. Happy bidding!
