Gateway Classic Cars is thrilled to offer this amazing 1965
Oldsmobile 442 to its showroom located in West Deptford, NJ! When
Pontiac released the GTO in the fall of 1963, Oldsmobile was the
first on the scene to compete with the 442 which stood for 4-speed,
4-barrel and Dual Exhaust. Exuberant ads read "Police Needed It,
Olds Built It, Pursuit Proved It! Now you have the opportunity to
put this one on your list by owning this beauty! This 1965 Olds 442
represents the very best of the early days of the muscle car era
and roars down the road! Featuring the numbers matching 400 CID V8,
the first year of the famed powerplant, this car has a unique
addition that sets it apart from all the other 442s on the market.
It has the super-rare 3-2 bbl "tripower" addition, a performance
package made available in December 1965, bumping horsepower up to
360! This engine was rebuilt by JTL Engines in Keyport, NJ and runs
beautifully! The factory four-speed transmission was also rebuilt
and features a period/model correct 12-bolt posi-rear end with 373
gears. This great Oldsmobile wears a brilliant coat of Provincial
White which was applied in 2006 after it went through a disassembly
and body stripping. The car went through a complete professional
restoration in 1999 with the body removed and chassis replaced with
the period correct convertible frame. All new stainless fuel and
brake lines were installed with every grommet and gasket replaced.
The amazing black interior was not forgotten with new seat covers,
carpets, rubber moldings and Fischer seat belts added for that
authentic touch! Why not put down the automatic top while you're
driving to your next cruise? Let a cool breeze dwell in your space
enjoy the fact that this 442 is one of approximately 1389
four-speed convertibles! This car is ready for a new home after
years of meticulous care. Be the next proud owners of this piece of
muscle car history! Additional features include Front Disc Brakes,
Aluminum Radiator, Custom Speaker Door Pods, Power Brakes, Hooker�
Headers, Cragar� rims and rear torsion bars. To view this 1965
