Toronado GT
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Oldsmobile Toronado GT of 1970 was a one year only option, the third and final offering of the W34 package. This hi-perfomance package added 25hp to the base 375hp(gross) Toronado 455 cubic inch engine of 1968-70. Early versions offered ram-air but the 1970 was without this. The GT was a performance package built around a hi-performance camshaft, performance torque converter and dual (two inlet two outlet) exhaust. The GT was also an image package with dual-exhaust cutouts for the bumper, special paint stripes for the wheel wells, and a GT emblem for the hood. Oldsmobile built 5341 GT's in 1970 in exterior colors of Viking Blue, Grenadier Red, Aegean Aqua, Nugget Gold, Ming Jade and Platinum. Other colors were available. Interior colors included Ivory, Black, Saddle, Blue, Green and Gold in various materials. Buckets and a console shift were available. The W34 Toronado carried Oldsmobiles highest horsepower rating during its three year run.
