  Up for sale is my very rare 1972 Olds 442 Convertible.   This is true 442 and it is a 3-owner car.  This car is one of 1,025 442 convertible automatics built that year.  They made a total of 1041 convertibles, so the car is super rare.  This car has the 442 option with the W29 handling package, original M code in the vin - 350 engine with the 4bbl carburetor.  It has one repaint in beautiful dark green color and has brand new interior. The paint is an older restoration that still shines.  The car is loaded with options, like factory bucket seats, dual gate Hurst his and hers shifter, power steering, power brakes, factory air conditioning, tilt wheel, tach and gauges in the dash, factory 8 track player, AMFM radio, map light, power release trunk, power locks, W29 handling package with 12 bolt rear, dual trumpet exhaust, ram air hood with the original ram air cleaner, rear wing spoiler, power convertible top and rally wheels.

  This car has a rebuilt engine and transmission (2009), new convertible top with rear glass window, new tires, new alternator and new battery. The car is an original 442 that runs, drive, turns, stops and performs very well.  It comes with spare and jack in the trunk also.  

  The car is completely matching numbers with the original “born with” engine (see pictures of vin stamp on engine block), transmission, rear end etc. This car runs great, has new brakes  It runs, handles and stops very well.  Brake lights, headlights, blinkers, interior lights including the am/fm radio all work.  The horn and all of the gauges work great, but the original 8 track turns on, can hear run, light comes on but the tape does not play sound.  The brake booster is the original Delco Moraine.  The car has some rust bubbles starting at the bottom of the trunk lid edge, which is very common on these cars.  It also has a few at the lower drivers quarter panel behind the rear wheel.  This car is solid though and looks great.  This is a driver car that could be bought and driven to shows now.  It’s a rare color and optioned car ……best of all it’s a matching numbers 442 convertible, super rare.  This car gets thumbs up everywhere I go.

• 442 – 350 engine with 4bbl carburetor

Feel free to email me with any questions.  This car will appreciate in value over the next several years and is better than money sitting in your bank account, since you can enjoy the car while it appreciates (should appreciate faster than the interest from the loan for that matter).  This is a great example of a true matching number 442 Convertible.  It is very hard to find cars like this 1 of 1041 made…..so Bid early, don’t miss out.
