Oldsmobile is one of those great American auto brands that has slowly faded away and gone into the history books. It joins a long list of great names, such as Pontiac, Mercury, Hudson and many more. Over 35 million Oldsmobile vehicles were produced over a 107-year existence. One of their well-known nameplates was the Toronado, a personal luxury car. Four generations were made, between 1966 and 1992. This 1977 Oldsmobile Toronado is a second-generation car that’s reported to be mostly original. It comes to you with its original paint, and we’re told that documentation is available. Hence, it’s an ideal car to experience a slice of opulent Seventies land yacht-style motoring.
According to the April 1968 issue of Car And Driver, the Oldsmobile Toronado “should be the last word in the neighborhood one-upmanship contest.” The Oldsmobile Toronado Coupe was a full-size personal luxury car designed to rival similar offerings from Buick, with its Riviera, and Ford, with its Thunderbird. Introduced for the 1966 model year, the Toronado featured a massive departure from American cars of the era: it was front-wheel drive! Although commonplace today, the front-engine front-wheel drive configuration was still relatively novel in the ’60s. At the time, virtually every American offering was rear-wheel drive, with only foreign economy cars, such as the BMC Mini and Renault 16, featuring a front-wheel drive configuration. Nevertheless, Oldsmobile had been working on the concept for some years, and the Toronado featured the layout. The impressive looks and interesting drivetrain layout make our featured 1970 Oldsmobile Toronado Coupe a valuable addition to any car collection. It is reported to have undergone recent maintenance and sports many original parts.
