Price: US $39,999.00 SOLD OUT
1968 Oldsmobile 442, low original miles, numbers matching engine, trans, and rear diff. 6.6 liter/400 cubic inch V8, turbo 400 3 speed auto, T series (same as W-30) 3.42 geared 12 bolt posi differential. Power steering and power brakes. Rally Pac gauges with in dash Tic-Toc-Tach. Tach and clock both work great. Code E Nocturne blue paint, brand new four wheel slotted/drilled disc brakes with powder coated calipers, powder coated BMR lowering springs, pst sway bar ends links and bushings, new gabriel shocks, stainless steel brake hard lines, and braided stainless flex lines. New corvette master cylinder, booster, and proportioning valve. New 18x8 & 18x9 staggered wheels and tires. Has a hidden MSD 6 ignition, coil, plug wires, and a Pertronix kit installed in the stock distributor, so it starts and runs considerably better than the factory points ignition did. Completely rebuilt factory quadrajet carb. New quick ratio GM YA power steering box. Not a W30 car but has the W30 ram air cold air intake with twin scoops under the bumper. Interior in great stock condition, front seat has been reupholstered and the carpet has been replaced, everything else is original. Original bumper jack assembly still in the trunk. Only 36,000 1968 442's were ever made, and not many have survived the hard life muscle cars lived, finished the last week of April 1968 at the Fremont, California plant, it's build plate matches the vin, unlike some 442's that were taken off other assembly lines to be finished. I have the original protecto-plate, and owners manual, the original stereo, and all the original brakes, springs, and master cylinder/booster boxed up if someone would like them, to have the option of returning it to stock. I will say that it rides, handles, steers, and stops WAY better than stock now though. It has enough braking power that I now feel comfortable driving in heavy traffic. Stock 442 four wheel drums leave a lot to be desired... Excellent driving car, ready for summer cruising or road trips, very comfortable to drive, and is a head turner. It seems like you see '69 Camaros or early Chevelles on every block, but I rarely encounter another 442, so its a good car for stealing attention at shows. Feel free to message any further questions, I can give you more info or pictures of anything I may have missed. Thanks for looking!
