Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this
Pro-Street 1970 Oldsmobile 442 is for sale in our Louisville KY
showroom. The 4-4-2 name derives from the original set up of the
first car that debuted in 1964. The set up was just that a 4 barrel
carb, 4 speed transmission and dual exhaust. Pretty much everything
desired on your first generation muscle cars. Some people, even to
this day, think that 442 is the cubic displacement of the motor but
in all reality Oldsmobile never made a 442 CID motor. They did
however make a 400 cubic inch big block and in 1965 it was the
motor of choice for the Cutlass 442 cars. Now , being that you
could get an automatic, the 4-4-2 stood for 400 CID, 4 barrell,
dual exhaust. Sales would steadily rise through the first
generations 4 year span topping out at a tad over 25000 units. The
1968 model year would see the 4-4-2 become its own model and not
just an option any longer. This 70 is a great example of these
timeless machines. With 25267 actual miles you can tell this silver
beauty looks to be in great condition. This 442 comes with loads of
paperwork including the original build sheet, window sticker, and
protecto-plate. The silver with black stripes looks just like it
did when it left the factory over 46 years ago. Pop the hood and
the 400+ HP 455 cid motor looks right at home, especially with the
Chrome Valve covers and air cleaner. Mated up to a turbo 400 this
is one of the easiest driving big block muscle cars to drive. WIth
the huge amount of torque being produced, these 442's were known
for laying down some of the nastiest blackest burnout's that you
have ever seen. Hence the reason this car was tubbed, so that a
huge set of steam roller tires could be tucked up under the
fenders. Options on this Pro Street 1970 Oldsmobile 442 include;
AC, AM/FM radio with Cassette player, power steering, power brakes,
black cloth interior, seat belts, polished aluminum alloy Wheels.
