1966 Oldsmobile Toronado Deluxe

Description: What I have up for sale is an extremely clean, mostlyrestored 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado Deluxe. This was GMs first front wheel drive car based on a concept from DavidNorth in 1962 and was finally realized for the 1966 model year. Combining a massive 425 CI V8 engine with a 3speed Turbo Hydramatic 425 gave the 1966 Toronado a brisk 385 HP with 475 FT/LBSof torque. The Toronado could easily do0-60 in 6.5-7 seconds which was very fast for its era. Built on the E-Body chassis shared by the Buick Riviera and the soon to be revised Cadillac Eldorado in 1967, the Toronado was a perfect combination of luxury and power. The lack of a transmission hump gave the Toronadomore leg room than other larger luxury cars of its day. This along with a unique Strato-Bench seat gavethe driver and its passengers all the comfort and thrills one could ask for. The Toronado Deluxe here, affectionately known as Sienna,has been owned by me for the past two years. She has a freshened up numbers matching 425 V8 with a fully rebuilt 425TH425 transmission. The transmission wasrebuilt using the correct switch-pitch parts only several years ago and performslike new. She can easily do 110 withoutbreaking a sweat. She’s nice and smoothon the highway which makes for comfortable long trips to Sedona, Payson, and other relaxingAZ destinations. Exhaust is newer withinthe last 10 years and all seals, etc, have been replaced. There is no cabin drone, but she has a healthyrumble in the back that only a high displacement engine can provide (videos provided below). All suspension components, etc have beenreplaced. Tires are newer within thelast 5 years. Brakes have been replaced,and she’ll stop on a dime. The body is in excellent, near new shape (original/refurbished). The car was fully repainted roughly 4 yearsago and stripped down to bare metal. Shewas repainted in her factory correct Autumn Bronze using a two-stage paint,which almost looks as if it could be the old style acrylic lacquer. With even a simple hand wash she shines likea mirror. The chrome was also redone andshines like new. All trim pieces andscripts appear as new. Body panels alignas they did when she left the factory. Interior is 100% OEM correct with the matching autumn bronzecolor, same as the exterior. It toolooks as new and there are no known defects in the cloth, trim, etc. All gages work on the dash and the dash clockkeeps perfect time. Vacuum actuatedheadlights have been fully restored and operate wonderfully. Options include power steering, power brakes, AM radio (AM/FM deckincluded), A/C, Strato-Bench, heater/defroster,etc. Windows/seats/antenna are manual. I have extra parts which come with the car, a binder of original advertisements, and a folder full of receipts going back to the early 70s. The only reason I’m parting ways with this beautiful lady isa fading interest in 60s cars. I’ve gravitatedmore towards 40s/50s vehicles as of late, so I’d like to see her go to a goodhome. Funds for the purchase of this vehicleare due within 14 days from the date of sale. Payment must be in form of a cashier’s check or other secure funds froma bank.
