Vehicle Description
You're looking at a real-deal 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass S 442 with
its numbers-matching 455 V8. And while that's already tempting
enough, you should really dig into the details, paperwork, and
investments that make this cool coupe a great muscle car
cruiser.
Viking Blue is a great factory-correct color to have on an Olds.
Plus, this one has a more modern respray that lets the sunlight
highlight the curves in the profile. So this one really loves to
showcase one of the best hardtop styles of the muscle car era. The
intricate white stripes emphasize the aggressive details in the
hood and the flare of the fenders. And it coordinates with the
premium white vinyl roof to give this coupe the right balance of
power and sophistication that the 442 is known for offering. This
same dual nature can be seen with the chrome bumpers where they
stylishly hug the form of the car, and at the same time, the rear
ones are notched to accommodate the big dual exhaust tips.
Black interiors are always great in aggressive muscle cars. But the
nice recent investments here also uphold that premium Olds
atmosphere. It's really a pleasant to spend some time thanks to the
fresh feeling on the upholstery, headliner, door panels, and
carpeting. They even got the details right with the button-top
presentation on the seats and doors. And the wood-like trim warms
up the atmosphere nicely. But what you'll love the best is how the
driver is the true priority. That means front bucket seat with a
center console in-between. And did you spot the Hurst "His n Her"
dual-gate shifter? You have the correct Oldsmobile sports wheel,
and beyond that is the cool factory round gauge trio including
speedo and tach.
Under the hood is exactly what you want to see - a numbers-matching
455 cubic-inch V8. There's even some added style and substance with
the bright Edelbrock air breather, newer alternator, steel braided
coolant lines, and AN fittings. These are the kind of investments
that make for a strong-running powerhouse. The mighty V8 fires up
readily as it inhales deeply from the Rochester Quadrajet
four-barrel carburetor. And it exhales with added authority from
the glasspack-style dual exhaust. This one handles its performance
nicely thanks to the stout numbers-matching TH400 three-speed
automatic transmission (and don't forget about the control of the
dual-gate shifter.) This is built to be a driver with power
steering, power brakes, and front discs. Plus, there are some nice
performance pieces, like the reinforced rear trailing arms w/sway
bar, and the grippy ZR-rated tire that come for the upgrade to
modern 18-inch Boss Motorsports wheels.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual packet and factory
buildsheet that shows this is proper 442. It all makes for an
irresistible package you know needs to be in your garage. Call
