Description
Lot #945.1 - Rare with only 3,104 produced. Beautiful with sleek, aggressive lines and drop top body. Thrilling with a big block and a 4-speed. This 442 has it all.
It is finished in stunning red over red interior with a black soft top and was the recipient of a high-quality, ground-up restoration completed in 2004 by an Olds 442 specialist. The interior features completely replaced upholstery over bucket seats, new door panels, lots of new and/or refurbished trim, the original center console with bullet-shaped voltage gauge mounted on it, power disc brakes, the original Tachometer with inset auxiliary gauges, power top, power antenna, and more. The trend continues on the exterior with gorgeous paint, a new soft top with completely restored frame components, lots of new chrome, and new correct wheels with redline tires. The correct 400cid V8 for this car and is the higher output 4 barrel, "Ultra High Compression" unit that Oldsmobile offered with 350hp and 440lb-ft of torque versus the lower level L66 with only 300hp. It has been professionally rebuilt and is mated with the rare 4-speed manual transmission. This awesome 442 can be a cornerstone in any American Muscle enthusiast's collection.
