Vehicle Description
This 442 has multiple options and accessories, including the
functional outside air-induction hood, factory air and 4-speed
manual transmission. This is one of 1,304 442 convertibles built in
1971. The unique "44" is disclosed in the VIN, verifying its
authenticity. The letter "M" is also notable as it represents the
Lansing, MI, plant, which is the only plant where 442s were built.
It retains its original born-with matching-numbers engine. The VIN
is stamped on the side of the block with visible broach marks. All
that power and torque is put to work by a correct restored M20
4-speed manual transmission, 11-inch super-duty clutch and a
posi-traction 342 performance gear rear axle. Trumpet exhaust tips
emerge from the unmistakable 442 cutout rear bumper. The cowl data
tag reveals that the body was built at the Lansing, MI, plant and
assembled the third week of July 1971. It has been treated to a
no-expense-spared and comprehensive frame-off rotisserie
restoration. It has show quality panel fit, brightwork, glass and
upholstery. Significant options include power steering, brakes and
top, AM/FM, rear speakers and 8-track, Super Stock wheels, Wide
Ovals with chassis handling package, bucket seats, console and tilt
wheel, hood, deck and side stripes, sport mirrors and steering
wheel, tinted glass, HD Harrison radiator, Rally Pac gauges,
Tic-Toc-Tach and more. This 442 has less than 1,000 miles since the
completion of its restoration. **TITLE IN TRANSIT**
