Vehicle Description
1967 OLDSMOBILE TORONADO for sale. Motorcar Classics is pleased to
present this rare Survivor 1967 Oldsmobile Toronado Two-Door
hardtop featured in Bimini Blue (Code F) with Bimini Blue Morocceen
Vinyl and Pattern Cloth Luxury Deluxe interior with front
"Strato-Bucket" seats with folding center armrest. This Toronado
Deluxe Hardtop came nicely equipped from the factory including
working "Comfortron" AC, power steering, power brakes, power
windows, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, 6-way power adjustable
front seat, day / night rear view mirror, chrome driver's side rear
view remote mirror,heater and defroster, working original
Oldsmobile transistor AM radio, factory gauge clusters with 135 MPH
scrolling speedometer, OEM front and rear seat belts, back up
lights, glove box mounted trunk lid release, and hide-away
headlights. This Toronado is powered by Oldsmobiles Code "RT" 325
CI, 385HP "Rocket V8" motor with the original 4-barrel intake
manifold, exhaust manifolds, valve covers, "Dual Snorkel" air
cleaner housing and the original Rochester 4-barrel carburetor. It
sounds great too through the factory style dual exhaust system with
dual chrome tips. The engine is backed by a smooth-shifting
three-speed "THM-425" Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission.The
car is straight and sound with a condition that we would
characterize as a well-maintained, largely original, high-level
driver. It is reported that the car came from two prior owners in
the dry Montana/Idaho high mountain desert area which has likely
helped in preserving the original materials. The Toronado personal
luxury coupe was a breakthrough design from Oldsmobile when it was
introduced in 1966 as the first front-wheel drive American car
since the Gordon Beuhrig designed Cord of 1936-37. One is
immediately impressed by the broad, flat floors in the passenger
compartment made possible by the drivetrain being entirely over the
front wheels. This 1967 Toronado is an example of Americas best in
both design and engineering.
