Vehicle Detail

Relisted due to a non paying bidder. Apparently he failed to check local zoning laws before bidding, and found that his trailer park has a limit of 3 cars on blocks. One more would have been tacky. Thanks rainbows1456! This is a '67 Toronado with a 425 big block. Its not a 10 out of 10, but it looks pretty good. I guess you'd call it a 5 or 10 footer - the paint job is bright blue metallic, probably done 5-10 years ago on the cheap. It has some scratches here and there, the trunk lid is bubbling, and there is probably some filler in the lower fenders and door corners. The vinyl top is original, faded blue with some bubbling underneath. The rear Toronado emblem and the antenna are missing. Floors, etc are very nice. Trunk has a couple pin holes and 2 holes where a trailer hitch was added years ago but removed. Mechanically the car feels great - if left for a couple days you'll need to prime the carb to get it to start, but it fires up with a healthy growl and sounds really strong. Like a 60's blg block olds should. To my knowledge, its bone stock except for a dual exhaust with original resonators out back. Trans shifts fine, brakes are good to fair, etc. Headlights will work if connected to manifold vacuum - the pods are ok but someone started replacing hoses and everything is disconnected. Other lights are ok. Structurally the car is very good, but there is a hole in the right rear rail where someone had a trailer hitch bolted, and tore the bottom of the rail when removing it. That same rail has some scale just in front of the rear wheel, but it doesn't appear heavily damaged. Drives fine but I wouldn't guarantee it for a long road trip.Previous owner before me (1 year ago) did a full tune up, new 235-75-15 tires, and I just replaced the power steering return hoses, tuned the carb and reset the correct timing. The power windows do not work currently due to some frayed/cut wires in the door jamb. Power seat works intermittently. AC needs charged. I don't have any hub caps or trim rings for it. However the car retains its original deluxe floor mat and accessory trunk mat. Seats have some splitting on the tops, but carpet is original and presentable, and overall the interior is very usable. I've owned the car for a year and drove it just a few miles. One night I failed to latch the hood all the way and it came open while driving. Ouch! Fortunately the damage wasn't that bad - windshield wasn't broken and I only had to replace the hinges. Unfortunately, the hood has several dents and doesn't fit 100% any more. However it does open and close ok, and the latch works now! After that I parked it and didn't do much more with it. The Toro is located in New Richmond, Ohio, near I-275 and US-52. Also for sale locally, if you have questions, feel free to email or call 513-314-7620. Thanks for looking!
