Description of 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado Coupe

AS IS WHERE IS. Does not currently Run but shouldn't be too hard to get it there. To the best of my knowledge All parts are there it just needs some work to run smoothly and be road ready. Parts alone are worth over $1500 easy. However, ll offers are considered as it must be moved by October 1st from Akron Ohio 44301. Tires are probably not roadworthy so Flatbed Truck is Required. NON Refundable $500 down payment via paypal, alance due as cash on pickup. Clean title. All info is to the best of my knowledge but no warranties or guarantees written or implied. AS IS WHERE IS.
This is a one of a kind car that will be 50 years old next year. Get it now while the economy is down and inflation is low. They don't make these things any more..
We recommend using the Buy It Now Feature if it is still available, s it is my understanding that it may no longer be available once the Low Reserve Price is Met. Furthermore, he item is for sale locally (contrary to what the windshield says) and we reserve the right to pull the listing at any time prior to a buy it now purchase.

From Wikipedia :
The Oldsmobile Toronado is a personal luxury car that was produced by Oldsmobile from 1966 to 1992. Designed to compete with the Ford Thunderbird and General Motors' own Buick Riviera, he Toronado is historically significant as the first U.S.-produced front-wheel drive automobile since the demise of the Cord in 1937.
The unusual Toronado powertrain, hich combined an engine and transmission into an engine bay no larger than a conventional rear-wheel drive car, as dubbed the Unitized Power Package (UPP). They proved so over-built the UPP was employed basically unchanged in the 1970s GMC motorhome.
As debuted, he innovative Toronado featured such GM developments as the:

Heavy-duty Turbo-Hydramatic 400 three-speed automatic transmission (named THM425 in FWD form)
Rochester Quadrajet four-barrel carburetor
Spherical shaped exhaust-manifold flange gaskets, hich provided freedom of movement in the exhaust system and prevented leaks
"Draft-Free" ventilation system, hich reduced wind noise considerably by eliminating conventional front-door vent windows

Firestone also designed an 8.85" x 15" tire especially for the Toronado called the TFD (Toronado-Front-Drive) tire. It had a stiffer sidewall than normal, nd the tread and stylishly thin white pin-stripe were also unique.

To power the car, ldsmobile engineers selected a conventional, lthough performance-boosted, lds 425cuin (7L) Super Rocket V8 rated at 385hp (287kW) and 475ft·lb (644N·m) of torque. It provided an increase of 10hp (7.5kW) over the Starfire 425, nd an increase of 20hp (15kW) 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.
