condition: good

drive: rwd
fuel: gas
odometer: 2305
paint color: blue
size: full-size
title status: clean

type: coupe



Considered the boldest car ever built by Oldsmobile. This is a 2,305 mile survivor, W30 / W27, close ratio 4 speed Olds 442. 1 of only 262 Sport Coupe W30's Built. One site estimates it at 1 of 142 when you factor in this cars specific configuration. Any number you decide to go with, this is one of the coolest Oldsmobiles manufactured. It is believed to be one of the lowest mile unrestored W30 442 in existence. It is a Factory Ordered lightweight car with one purpose in mind, going fast. This is a mostly original paint survivor. When new it did have some paint respray below the belt line under warranty simply due to paint imperfections from the factory. It is a beautiful car that has been maintained to reflect it's "as Sold" configuration. It is a full numbers matching piece of History.

Documentation is just as important with a True Collectable Investment Grade Car and this one is loaded. Documentation includes the original Window Sticker, Purchase Invoice, Protect-O-Plate, mileage statements, an old ad from 1994 documenting miles and much more.

Finished in its original Twilight Blue Paint with the original light blue interior. It features the heavy-duty cooling package, the one year only W27 lightweight anti-spin rear axle, 3.91 performance gears, close ratio 4 speed, sport Mirrors and a bench seat. This is an extremely rare buying opportunity. Don't let it slip by you.

Whats the story of ordering a car like that and not even putting 3,000 miles on it?

The VIN on the block looks hokey. The miles on the odometer and the faded inner fenders do not jive... BUYER BEWARE

I have not seen this car for sale locally until today

Notice the bill of sale he traded in a 68 442 when he bought it. Pretty cool.

Super cool that it's an Empire Olds Car. My 71 442 convertible was sold new there.

Would be curious to hear why the VIN stamp on the block looks "hokey". It appears similar to many VIN block stamps that I have seen over the years.
