UP FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS MY RARE FACTORY ORIGINAL 1965 OLDSMOBILE 442 CONVERTIBLE, MATCHING #S WITH FACTORY A/C. THIS IS A REAL 65 442 CONVERTIBLE WITH A/C, THIS IS NOT A CLONE/TRIBUTE/REPRODUCTION OR FAKE. ITS THE REAL DEAL... BUILT IN LANSING MI. IT DOES HAVE THE 4V ON THE COWL TAG. PLEASE VISIT 442BRO FOR MORE INFO. ON LANSING BUILT 442'S. THIS 442 HAS ITS ORIGINAL MATCHING NUMBERS BIG BLOCK ENGINE. CASTING NUMBER #389298B. WITH FACTORY A/C. THIS IS A VERY STRAIGHT 442 WITH ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL BODY PANELS, AND INTERIOR, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO THIS CAR SINCE ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR ONE REPAINT (USING THE ORIGINAL COLOR) ABOUT 7 YEARS AGO, AND A NEW CONVERTIBLE TOP WAS PUT ON LESS THEN 2 YEARS AGO AND IS IN PERFECT CONDITION WITH A CLEAR REAR WINDOW. OTHER THEN THAT THIS CAR HAS NEVER BEEN TAKEN APART, IT STILL HAS THE FACTORY METAL LUBE TAG STILL ATTACHED TO THE REAR END. THE ORIGINAL FACTORY RED-LINE SPARE TIRE, JACK AND TRUNK MAT ARE STILL IN PLACE AND APPEAR AS THEY DID WHEN THIS CAR LEFT THE FACTORY. VERY WELL CARED FOR THE 442 HAS NEVER BEEN WRECKED AND MAINTAINS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL BODY PANELS, NO BODY WORK EVER DONE AND NO FILLER ANYWHERE. THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST RUST FREE CONVERTIBLES I HAVE EVER SEEN,,,, NO RUST AT ALL..... ANYWHERE, THERE ARE NO HOLES OR ROT IN THE FLOORS/FRAME/TRUNK OR BODY MOUNTS. TRUNK LIP AND DOOR JAMS ARE PERFECT, EVERYTHING IS SOLID, SOLID, SOLID, FACTORY METAL. ALL BODY LINES ARE STRAIGHT AND LINE UP PERFECTLY, TRUNK AND DOOR GAPS LOOK NICE AND EVEN WITH NO SAGGING IN THE DOORS WHATSOEVER. NO DENTS OR DINGS. PLEASE SEE PICS. ALTHOUGH THE INTERIOR IS ALL FACTORY ORIGINAL IT STILL LOOKS GOOD, THATS PROBABLY A GOOD TESTAMENT ON HOW WELL THIS CAR WAS CARED FOR. THE SEATS MAINTAIN THE ORIGINAL FACTORY BLUE INTERIOR WITH BLUE CARPET THAT SHOWS LITTLE WEAR. THE CENTER CONSOLE LOOKS GREAT ALONG WITH THE DASH WHICH IS STILL SOFT. ALL GLASS IS PERFECT WITH NO CRACKS, FADING OR FOGGING. WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN EFFORTLESSLY, ALL 4 THEM. STEERING WHEEL HAS NO CHIPS OR CRACKS. THE FACTORY CONVERTIBLE POWER TOP WORKS PERFECT ALONG WITH THE POWER REAR ANTENNA. ALL RUBBER MOLDINGS ARE SOFT AND LOOK GREAT. ALL CROME AND TRIM PIECES ALSO LOOK GOOD, ALONG WITH THE BUMPERS. PAINTED ABOUT 7 YEARS AGO WITH ITS ORIGINAL BLUE COLOR, WHICH STILL SHOWS VERY NICE. PLEASE SEE PICS. THIS CONVERTIBLE STILL OWNS ITS ORIGINAL B BLOCK ENGINE, WHICH TO MY KNOWLEDGE HAS NEVER BEEN REBUILT, ALONG WITH ITS SPECIAL DUTY TRANSMISSION. THIS 442 RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT AND IS VERY SMOOTH AND EASY TO START HOT OR COLD. NO SMOKE WHEN STARTING OR RUNNING. THE FACTORY TACH STILL WORKS AS IT SHOULD ALONG WITH ALL ELECTRICAL. RUNS VERY NICE DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH PLENTY OF POWER, AND WILL STILL DEMONSTRATE ITS POSITRACTION REAR-END WITH EASE. ALSO HAS NEW EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH SOUNDS GREAT. TIRES ONLY HAVE A FEW HUNDRED MILES ON THEM. CAR DOES HAVE FACTORY POWER STEERING AND BRAKES. ALSO INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINAL CONVERTIBLE BLUE TOP COVER. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST INVESTMENTS ANYONE CAN MAKE. THIS IS ONE OF 1,683 CONVERTIBLE AUTOMATIC 442'S MADE AND AS OF THIS YEAR ACCORDING TO THE AUTOMOTIVE CLEARING HOUSE THERE ARE ONLY 264 CONVERTIBLE 442'S REMAINING/REGISTERED IN ALL. LET ALONE ONE WITH MATCHING NUMBERS AND WITH FACTORY A/C. THIS CAR IS A BLAST TO DRIVE, WITH LOOKS AND THUMBS UP EVERYWHERE YOU GO. IN A SEA OF CHEVYS AND MOPARS THIS CAR REALLY STANDS OUT. ANY QUESTIONS OR FOR MORE PICTURES, PLEASE CONTACT ME. I CAN ONLY POST 24 PICTURES WITH EBAY.... ANYONE MAY COME TO SEE AND DRIVE THIS CAR AT ANYTIME, JUST EMAIL ME FOR MY NUMBER...I HAVE A CLEAR CALIFORNIA TITLE IN HAND. THANKS FOR LOOKING.
