Vehicle Description
Sunnyside Chevrolet of Elyria, Ohio in conjunction with Greg's
Sports, Classic, & Muscle is proud to offer for sale this
Incredible 1964 Oldsmobile 442 HARDTOP.Every once in a while, we
have a truly amazing car come through our Sports, Classic and
Muscle car department. This is one of those cars. We understand the
restoration was completed in 2012, the first real show entered was
the Cape Fear Antique Auto Club of America show in 2015 where it
was selected "Best in Show" out of over 600 entries. Yes, this is a
special car.In 1964 just 2,999 442 cars were produced. In the
context of American car production normally counted in the tens and
hundreds of thousands that's an amazingly small number. How many
left- who knows but certainly VERY FEW the caliber and provenance
of this one. Oldsmobile's answer to the GTO started with the 1964
model and Olds sure followed Pontiac with a real contender. Enough
of the grey-haired history lesson let's look at this car.Factory
equipped with the B09 package (442 package before it was called the
442 package) this is a NUMBERS MATCHING all correct example. Dare
we say PROTECTO PLATE! Yep we sure do. Owner history back to new?
Yep. Photos of the car as delivered in New York day one with its
original owner? Yep. No worries here this is an investment grade
car. Period.The paint on this Olds is truly magnificent. No waves
or ripples down the sides or flats, door, hood and trunk fit that
is way past what GM typically delivered in 1964. Interior-
outstanding, crisp and correct. Mechanicals- truly excellent. For
those of you picture studiers in the crowd she is currently running
a very clean set of headers but we have the original exhaust
manifolds with the car and will gladly install them if the next
owner desires. Your choice, a few extra ponies or the single thing
that stands in the way of this car being factory correct. Look at
the underside- frame- excellent- floors- excellent, rockers
excellent. This car is exactly what you'd expect a Best in Show car
to look like. For the record, excellent is not a word that comes
easily here at our classics department.We have a complete set of
restoration photos, some early ownership photos, pictures of the
engine stamping (correct, correct, correct) and much more. Buy this
car with confidence, it's that good.Drive it, show it, keep it in a
bubble and polish it as a prized possession, the choice is yours
once you make it yours.We stand behind our thoughts on this car by
offering our travel expenses guarantee- come see the car and if we
have materially misrepresented its condition we will gladly pay
half of your travel expenses up to $500.00- this offer had been in
place since we sold our first classic and we haven't paid the money
yet.... We pride ourselves on having good cars and representing
them properly.Additional pictures and video are available, please
