danielknelson · January 26th, 2007, 02:50 PM

I have decided that my next car is going to be a 1968 Oldsmobile Toronado. That said, I have found it very hard to find one. I am looking for one in quite nice shape in either black or silver. Although I would consider other options. No vinyl tops please. I am very much need a car soon and would like it to be a Toronado. Any and all leads would be much appreciated.

If you have the time surf Craigslist from cities in your part of the country. Also if you haven't done it yet post a wanted ad on this site, and you can also post free wanted ads at: 442.com realoldspower.com and v8Buick The Buick site has a section for "Other" and there seems to be a lot of guys with both Buick and Olds cars. And of course keep an eye on ebay, just about everything under the sun shows up there at some point. Welcome to the world of Oldsmobiles!!! John
