Vehicle Detail

ORIGINAL MATCHING NUMBERS. 99.8% rust free. Last owner had it seven years and always garaged. NEW: mirrors, carpet, headlight bezels/frames, rear view mirror (all the old parts are in the trunk), master cylinder, and Summit GT Radial Trac tires. Convertible top pump & switch in 2009; carb rebuild, rear seat belts installed, hydraulic line kit for top, trans service w/pan gasket/filter, rear pinion seal, in 2010. OPTIONS: *400ci* motor (#396026G); Power windows (work nicely w/driver window needing adjust-positioning, but strong electric motors), P. top (works strong); P. brakes, and P. steering. Original Tilt wheel & electric seat. Also additional sport options: center console auto shift/bucket seats. Twelve bolt rear differential. The dash has NO cracks. The rear bumper is great. The front has some small rust pits. Car has been repainted and the black racing stripes added. Almost rust free floors and trunk. All the trim is nice. All lights (including instrument) and wipers work. Gas gauge and horn do not. I've been told it is not a Ram Rod. It is a 442, *400ci* block standard and matching numbers. Car will make it anywhere; drive it home. No second chance offers. Clear Florida title in my name. Presently licensed and insured on the road. NO brandings on the title such as: "rebuilt"; "salvage" or "lien". As is. No refund deposit. Howard 904-881-3495. Deposit is non-refundable. As is sale. * This is the LOWEST priced real 442 in this condition on Ebay in recent history (other than projects, clones, or non-original/non-matching number examples).* This car will be re-listed into 2013 and beyond. If Christmas ownership is a thought, the previous/present bidding dollar level isn't getting it there by then, or getting it at all (keep in mind transport/trucking companies are very busy with loaded trucks this time of year-going north is a little more available/cheaper). If a New Years celebration/buying is planned the same dynamics apply. $18,500 is the magic "442" number. Doesn't matter if its 2012, 2013, or 2014(probably higher priced by then). Yes, if owning one at perfect price is the goal (maybe like this one) your time may come. There also comes a time when a buyer of decision realizes when a seller's price is final, no longer an asking price. This time is now on this car. If you haven't bought this car by now, your not serious and should be looking at Cutlasses/Toronados or VW.s, not real live 442, and especially not a real 442 convertible. 31 watchers: 10/12/2012;8:42PM; do you know where your 442 is tonight? I'll tell you what: a couple glasses of good wine, cheese and crackers, then driving this beauty just so slowly on that back street, or country road, man, what a feel. Always the option to feel the muscle at your control. And, if its with a good friend or love, better than the wine, crackers, cheese and muscle combined. BAMM-to life! May you spend your money on valubles of 100% return value instead of 100% depreciation. I recommend Bear's Transport Company for your transport needs. Bonded, insured and usually fast to your door. 866-858-8066; 847-810-7641, Liz or Frank. Any confusion on 68 to 70 years VIN/verses Trim plate numbers check http://www.442.com/oldsfaq/of442.htm
