See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Driver quality vehicle, restored a few years ago and painted back to the factory colors. I am the third owner and purchased and restored the car after it had been stored in a garage for 30? years. Vehicle odometer shows just under 50,000 miles and can pretty much document as original milage.400 cu.in. engine, 400 transmission, 12 bolt rear end. Car is a little unusual as it has bench seat and column shift. A/C works with a yearly charge of 134a refrigerant. front seat cover needs replaced as it has some holes and tears and they are available. Body and paint are not show quality as I am an amature body man but they are very presentable. Bumpers have slight surface rust and some of the mouldings have dents and dings from the previous owner. Body has some slight dings and chips from normal use as I drove it daily (except for bad winter weather)for a couple years. Car runs and drives excellent with no squeeks or rattles. Front seal on transmission will leave some drips but not too bad."

This 442 belonged to my wife's sister's husband, long story but I purchased it from him after it had sat in a garage since around 1983/84. I did the restore on it and painted it back to the factory colors. I am by no means a professional body man but the vehicle is very presentable. It does have a few slight nicks and such as I used it as a daily driver for a couple of years except in winter weather. I can pretty much document that milage is correct and has not turned over. New quarter panels where installed along with lower patches on front fenders, new metal on bottom lip of deck lid and a couple patches in the trunk all metal parts where welded in. Complete body was then spayed with white epoxy primer inside and out and then painted with Acrylic Enamel just like the factory used. New vinyl top, carpet and headliner where installed. Build sheet was found under the factory carpet, pretty ruff but I laminated it and will include in sale. B.F. Goodrich T A radials are like new. Car runs and drives perfect with no squeeks or rattles.

Front seal on transmission will leave drips but it does not drip enough to warrant me pulling the transmission, rarely does it need fluid.

Front seat could use a new cover as there are seam tears and mice holes (never bothered me ) Dash pad has a small crack above instrument cover.

could use new sunvisors. a/c works with a yearly R134a recharge. original blower switch is bad and not available, so a chevelle blower switch was wired in and hangs under the dash.

Brakes, wheel cylinders, master cylinder where all replaced when I re did the car.

There is some surface rusting on both the front and rear bumpers not real bad. re plated bumpers are available if desired.

some of the stainless trim has some dents and dings from the previous owner.

Again car is not show quality but it is a very presentable good running and driving Friday night cruiser and has won some 2nd place trophies @ the local car shows the few times it was entered. Got beat in the muscle car category by a near perfect 1969 Mach 1.

Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this buy it now at any time.

Buyer will be responsible for pickup or shipping @ your expense. I will work with you on getting it on a transporter.

Call Howard with any questions @ 314-821-4356  m. thru f.     8am to 5pm

You will find a picture of an orange label on the glove box lid. This label was made by my sister in law the day they purchased the 442 in the late 70's it, along with the original pedal pads and factory Oldsmobile floor mats pretty much document the milage on the odometer.

 Of course this is a used car but I do feel you could fly in and drive home with no problem. Although I make no guarantees.

No refunds, no warranty, as is with Missouri safety inspection and Missouri I.D. O.D certificates. 1000.00 non refundable deposit do at time of buy it now. Balance due before car leaves my possession and funds are in my bank. no exceptions.

The engine has the good cylinder heads and  this is a real deal 442 not some copy or clone.
