Re: First Post, Hello from Clackamas Oregon

Welcome!.... What a beautiful car! So glad you introduced yourself and shared the photo. I wish you great drives and satisfying ownership happiness. Few things compare to ending the long search and finding a car that makes you happy. Glad to have another Northwestern-er around to benefit from the To...

Re: Howdy from Houston - 66 Deluxe

Hello Janice...Welcome! Good to have you in the club, and the owner of a prized vehicle. The only thing better than a Toronado story is one with a family connection. Good On You! for saving your Dad's gem. You're lucky to have such a find. I'm not in the Houston area...so I can't recommend any shops...

Re: Everybody's Toronado Just Got More Valuable

Oh Otto,! So sad for you and the loss of a great 1966 Toronado. My thoughts are gratitude that you are safe and unhurt...except in your automotive consciousness. I don't get to these forums often enough, but I just read of your tragedy. I know how much you've been connected to fellow members through...

Re: Twice Bitten

Thanks Walle... nice of you to say so. The lighter color is called "Saddle", and the darker color is "Nutmeg" (nice names) but you're right, they do look good together. Now, if I could just get them to dance at the wedding! They both drive, but with difficulty. They will be proje...

Re: Twice Bitten

Thank you Otto for the shared experience and common mindset. HaHa... for the comment about five cigarette lighters. I laugh when I hear about lighters and ashtrays being an option on new cars, and not even offered on some. I'm not a smoker, but my '72 has three lighters and four ashtrays. You've had...

Re: Twice Bitten

Thank You Bruce. Good advice and something I'll plan for in the future. I realize these two cars are not factory fresh, but the driving experience and overall appearance appeal to me more than most modern digitized super cars. I'm actually glad it doesn't have a 17 inch HD LCD touch screen display, ...

Twice Bitten

Hello All, I own two 1972 Toronados which currently are waiting for my undivided attention to fix, drive and enjoy. Sadly, because of my job, they are parked too far away for me to work on them now, but someday... Since I was 13 I wanted a 1972 Toronado. That year, Oldsmobile ran print ads with a To...
