VERY SHARP AND FAST! DOCUMENTED WITH TACTORY BUILD SHEET! SPECIFICATIONS Year 1970 Make Oldsmobile Model 442 Convertible W30 tribute VIN 344670E158424 Mileage 65,395 Engine 455ci Cylinders V8 Transmission 4-speed Title Clear Color Burgundy Mist Interior Color Balck DESCRIPTION Generals Motors was likely feeling the pressure of the muscle car era when upper management finally lifted a ridiculous limitation for Oldsmobile regarding how big the engine displacement could be for their production models. With the door wide open, a new 455ci V8 became the standard engine for the 4-4-2 series and consumers responded to the “gentlemen’s muscle car” with great appreciation! This new 455ci V8 produced a staggering 365 horsepower and a massive 500 ft lbs of torque! A virtual powerhouse! The 1970 Oldsmobile 442 convertible we are representing here is finished in code correct Burgundy Mist exterior with Black interior and matching convertible top. Fitted with this incredible 455ci V8, rare close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission (M21), and optional 3.42 performance rear end with Posi-traction! Loaded with additional options that include Strato-bucket seats (A51), center console (D55), Heavy Duty radiator (V02) variable-ratio power steering (N47), power disc brakes, Sport mirrors with drivers remote, tilt steering column (N33), Sport steering wheel (N34), 14” Super Stock wheels (N66), Deluxe AM/FM/8-track radio (U57 & U63), windshield washer, tinted windshield, 2-speed wipers, power convertible top, courtesy lamps in glove box and trunk (U29), wood instrument panel, and full dash instrumentation with tachometer! This wonderfully solid example possesses a super solid body and chassis! A look throughout this automobile will prove it was pampered in a dry climate most of its life! The former owner reports it was cared for in a long-time Arizona collection prior to his purchase. Complete with period T3 headlamps and a factory build sheet to support its authenticity, this wonderful car was treated to a W30 treatment that included W25 outside air induction (OAI) fiberglass hood with steel reinforcement, red inner fender wells, rear deck spoiler, wide side stripe and correct emblems! It has been properly restored to include a slightly older refinish of the paint, brand new convertible top and boot, interior carpet, tires, newer shocks at all corners, entire FlowMaster exhaust system including H-pipe, brake master cylinder, brake booster, front calipers, pads, rotors, front brake lines, & hoses, upper ball joints, front sway bars bushings, and much more! It runs brilliantly with excellent shifts, superb braking, and no disappointment with power output! The engine bay and trunk are nicely detailed for shows! Only 264 Olds 442 W-30 convertibles were reportedly created in 1970, of which only 96 were 4-speeds making them exceptionally rare to find today. Although, this car started life as a 442 convertible with W-30 appearance treatment added, the factory 4-speed and other options still make this a very rare car indeed! Especially when considering the rare exterior color as well! Please feel free to call with additional questions or to set up a time to see this car in person!
