Vehicle Detail

For sale here is an all original 1966 toronado deluxe "survivor". This car is a "time capsule" in excellent unmolested condition. I have the original protect-o-plate and owners manual. It runs and drives perfectly with no known mechanical issues. The car is rust free and fully loaded. It was owned early in its life by the owner of the Oldsmobile dealership listed on the rear light panel (Frank Gentile, Racine, WI). I have old receipts showing Frank Gentile as the owner. He reportedly had this car displayed at his dealership for many years. I have owned the car for 12 years. 1966 Toronado 70,000 milesoriginal paint (Autumn Bronze)original interior (Bronze)original chrome and stainless trimoriginal trunk lining, jack, etc.optional rubber front and rear floor mats (black driver rubber mat insert is gone, area is carpeted)air conditioning (needs R-12 charge), heat and all buttons on unit work perfectlypower windows, seats and vacuum operated lockscornering lights5 chrome wheels (tires have very little wear)remote controlled door mirrorvacuum operated remote trunk releasesplit bench seat with headrestsfully reclining passenger seattilt / tele steering wheelflarestatam / fm wonderbar radio (works but takes a few minutes to warm up)power antenna (motor runs but antenna is stuck down, could be the switch)rear defrost fanpassenger side visor mirrorcruise control (works but needs service)vacuum operated headlights (work perfectly)dealer installed running lightsdealer installed reel-out trunk lightdealer installed locking gas cap This is a 46 year old original car and is being sold "as-is" with no warranty or guarantee. The original autumn bronze metallic paint is really nice and shiny, but it does have minor chips and flaws (see photos). There is very slight damage to the passenger side fender (see photos). This happened prior to my ownership. The damage is very slight. I chose not to fix it so that the car retains its originality. I have done my best to describe the car honestly. This is a great car and as you know "a car is only original once".If you win the auction $1000 is due within 48 hours after the auction ends. The remainder is to be paid via bank wire, cash or check. All payments must clear before the car will be released to the new owner. I reserve the right to end the auction early if the car sells prior to the end of the auction.
