I don’t comment often, but I am blown away by the quality of this interior. The attention to detail is incredible and it looks luxurious even by today’s standards. Like you said, they really don’t make them like they used to.

You can thank the late Blaine Jenkins for that. He performed his magic on the 1966 Toronado interior, creating what you see in the video. He later went on to design the interiors of several notable GM cars, including the 1972 Ninety-Eight Regency, the 1973 Grand Prix, and the 1990 Corvette. Motor Trend has an excellent article on him on their website; I tried to include a link in this comment, but KZbin didn’t like it. 😁

Agree completely The Healthcare Guy. The style and function along with the quality of materials and fit are works of art reflecting a time when a small and talented team with oversight for a lead came up with something for approval, whereas today, costs are such that it seems like too many people have input into some cars. This Toronado gave me a big smile!!!!!

How awesome to see this beauty go from disaster to delight. The first-gen Toronado was, and still is, my No. 1 favorite car of all time. My heart still races whenever I see photos (or videos!) of them. I was 8 years old when it first came out, and I still have Motor Trend's 1966 Car of the Year issue (well-read, and without the cover) in which the amazing Toronado was the winner. Kudos to AMMO NYC for bringing this automobile back to life 👍

So many fond memories of driving across country and the many adventures taken in that car! He kept it until the early 80's at which point he got a 1982 Corvette with the crossfire injection.

I love this era Oldsmobile, but I've never seen a Toronado look this beautiful. I wonder why she was parked for so long? Certainly not because of rust issues! The word 'transformation' is overused in society nowadays, but the process of doing this car is nothing but. The result of this Toronado's detailing should be used as the definition for the word! I'll certainly think of the beast every time I hear it. Well done, people. She's an absolute pearler. Now, if I could just have his number to see if he's willing to sell it to me (after his son's wedding of course), that would be perfect! 😂 All the best.

18:11 Great restoration job. Some of that stuff is probably missing from the walls or attic of the house. I took stuff like that out of an old console radio and it included pink fiberglass, nut shells and a bunch of other things that would not normally be found in a 1948 radio. Rodents seem to round up whatever they can find, wherever they can find it. I'd also check the house wiring for any damage they might have left; one of my neighbors had a fire from the arcing of gnawed wiring in the attic.

I used to rescue a 66 Toronado - pulled it from it's grave in 2000. This was long before this started to be a thing on KZbin. We did a restoration from frame up. These cars are built like trains. You can make six cars today from one of those. Build quality and detail is amazing. There will never be another generation of vehicles that can survive neglect for so long. I ended up selling the Toro before it was finished. It took two more owners until the car was in one piece again. Finally found it online years later when it was sold to a new owner in Austria looking pristine as can be. Some color detailing we did gave it away. I always love seeing another one of those yachts...

It's absolutely insane how much the color of this car changed throughout this detail. The only real life comparison I can make is when I worked at a local car wash in high school and cleaned the interior of an old Ford Explorer someone bought from a heavy smoker. They were so shocked when I called them over to show them the shiny grey plastic interior, they didn't believe it was their car because the car they bought had a tan interior... that was the amount of discoloration from all the tar that came off. I used almost an entire spray bottle each of tar remover and interior cleaner in that car between the day, side panels and cupholders/ash trays, but they were so impressed with how transformed the entire vehicle was they tipped me and my team $100 on what was an advertised $70 cleaning package. This was in 2005 and to me, that $33 each for the hour or so we spent cleaning it between the three of us felt so incredible. Happiest customer I ever saw, they almost cried as I handed them the keys.

Love this car. Back in 1976 I had one in my sights for a mere $2500.00, IF I could convince my mother to agree. She did not. Her excuse? She thought that the front wheel bearings and drive system would be too expensive to maintain. So, I ended up with a 73 LTD Brougham. Another beautiful car. I am very happy that these beauties are still around and getting the love and attention they deserve.

Hi Larry. I am so impressed with the work you and your team had done to that 60's beauty. Actualy I am impressed with all your projects. Passion of cars is your thing fore sure and it shows. All my best regards. I have this passion too. I remember when I was a kid, my father and grand-father were very conservatives of the car they owed. My grand-father used to make me clean and grease and polish his 1966 Sedan Mercury Meteor Rideau (sand color) every other weeks. We had this car for over 33 years in the familly and when my father sold it after grand-father passed, it only had 39000 miles on it. Today, I keep on taking realy good care of my cars like grand-pa did but if I would have enough space, I would surely do what you do. Great Job.

What a truly incredible transformation. It was nice to see a car that wasn't as trashed as they normally are on the interior at least. The years of wear and neglect really melted off of this Tornado. Great work by the entire team!

I owned a '67 Toro when I was in college. I-75 I think it was, before it officially opened, no one on it but me, night time, and I was driving home from college in Florida to Pennsylvania. Light rain. Cruised for hours at 140 mph for hours and hours. The car was amazing. Got stopped in Florida for doing 150 on the Turnpike. When you would slow to 100, felt like you were doing 35. Great car. Amazing I am still alive. But that car was was incredibly engineered. And powerful. At the time, the word was that Detroit wanted their first front wheel drive luxury car to be a terrific car. It was. And what an amazing resto you did.......wow.

Unbelievable job! What a supreme team. Kevin really has deeply knowledge of his craft, very impressive. And the Olds Toronado is my all time fave car design specifically in that champagne color. What a joy to watch 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼👊🏼💛

You guys just knocked it out of the park on this one! Amazing transformation! As a young teenager, this was my dream car, and although I never bought one later on in life, this beautiful coupe reaffirms my original feelings and is still one of the best looking cars around.

Brought back some memories of my girlfriend whose father had a Toronado. He let us take it for a date and I remember her sitting next to me in the middle of the seat with no hump to straddle. What a beautiful car this one is. Great job on restoring this beauty. It could be a float in a parade.

Bro that car is hot fire! The Toronado is one of those cars that I may not love, and you may not love, but you we can definitely admire the reason why a niche group of people love it. I can only recall seeing one of them in person, at a car meet in Long Island around the early 90's (when I graduated High School).

WAIT HOLD ON at 12:20 there is a car show pamphlet being pulled out of the glove box, it says The Four Towns Training Center with a date May 2nd 1993. I'm pretty sure that's the name of the show my dad took me too, I always remembered Four Towns, and that's the year I graduated. That would be WILD if that's the actual car I saw back then. That just blew my mind...

All I can say is that not just your work ethic the quality of the work you guys deliver is just on a level not seen in everyday life. I worked in ready mix co here in SoCal and the day I received my brand spanking new truck I hit up AMMO website and bought everything I needed to keep it looking amazing. When I say that other drivers and even job site workers where impressed. Larry your product works soo dame great it would bead off all or most of the everyday grim of the ready mix life. Truly an amazing journey to see you going through and your products that back up your passion.

IMO the most astounding thing here (of many) is that you guys were apparently able to restore every component by _cleaning_ -- that is, nothing had to be tossed & replaced. Truly amazing.

Hey Larry! I have Vogues on 2 of my vehicles. What works on them, being white walls is "Shout" either in aerosol can or pump sprayer. Spray on let sit for a few minutes spray off with pressure washer. I've noticed with the pump shout I do need to agitate a little with brush.
