Vehicle Detail
No Reserve!! First Year FRONT WHEEL DRIVE Olds. Unmolested, high option original New Mexico desert car. 425 cu in (7.0 L) 385 hp (287 kW) Rocket V8 3-speed TH-425 automatic To power the car, Oldsmobile engineers selected a conventional, although performance-boosted, Olds 425 cu in (7 L) Super Rocket V8 rated at 385 hp (287 kW) and 475 ft·lb (644 N·m) of torque. It provided an increase of 10 hp (7.5 kW) over the Starfire 425, and an increase of 20 hp (15 kW) over the standard 425 engine in the Ninety-Eight. The Toronado's intake manifold was unique and was depressed down to allow for engine hood clearance. This is a GREAT Starting point for a project car. Very straight very rust free with only four small areas. Needs paint, Weatherstripping, and the interior needs restored, all original, major options on this car! Loaded! Motor is strong and runs well, tons of torque. Just drove it 55 miles. Starts right up and cruises great at 70 MPH Transmission, power steering, and brakes all work excellent.
