This is a real W-30 documented with original build sheet. It is #s
matching. Loaded with options including factory a/c. 1970 is the
most desirable to Olds collectors because it was the peak year for
horsepower.
EXTERIOR: Gorgeous Sherwood green without a vinyl top. The white
stripes really set it off. I call these the Lamborghini of muscle
cars with the bold stripes, big scoops and a wing. The restoration
is about 20 years old so the body has proven itself. It is straight
and smooth. The original ram air hood fits real good, it does not
have the typical stress cracks. The mirrors are correct for a 1970
Oldsmobile only. The paint is smooth and glossy. The W-30 stripes
are correctly painted. The jambs are very clean. Weatherstrips and
sill plates are nice. Up front the bumper, headlight bezels,
eyebrows on the hood and fenders look new. The glass is real clear
and all the stainless moldings are straight and shiny. Door handles
look new. In back the bumper has been rechromed, taillights look
new. It has a great stance, the wheels are restored beautifully.
The BF Goodrich tires look like they have no miles.
INTERIOR: The pearl white is gorgeous against the green. It has new
upholstery, headrests, door panels and armrests. The plastic seat
trim and chrome was replaced. The headliner is in excellent shape,
dome light works. Overall it is very tidy and unabused. Clean kick
panels, inside the console, mesh rear shelf etc. It also has an
abundance of options: rally pac gauges, tik tok tachometer, speed
minder, tilt deluxe wheel, rear window defogger, Am-Fm with an
8-track. In between the seats is a console with the Hurst dual gate
shifter. On the floor the carpets look new and it has reproduction
Oldsmobile mats. Interior lights all seem to be working including
in the glovebox and console. It has all it's original seat belts
including the shoulder belts.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Under that big air induction air cleaner is the
#s matching W-30 455-370 horsepower. It has the correct aluminium
intake, legendary F heads and original carb. Other features include
factory air conditioning which is updated to 134 freon, power
steering and power brakes. The booster is cadmium plated. The red
inner fenders are unique to the W-30. It has reproduction GM hoses
and clamps and spring clamp battery cables. The master cylinder,
alternator, washer bottle look new. Everything appears proper and
clean.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Somebody did a really excellent job detailing
the trunk. It appears to have clean factory metal. I don't see any
patches, the quarter panels appear to be the originals with no
splices. It has a very high quality, durable spatter finish paint.
The jambs are painted smooth and slick, the factory seams and pinch
welds are visible. The weather strip, decals and correct trunk mat
look like new. It has a restored matching wheel with an original
Wide Oval tire for spare. The jack assembly is restored, the
latches look new.
UNDERSIDE: Very proper, solid underside. Appears to have clean
original metal with factory undercoat. It has the rally suspension
which includes swaybars and boxed rear control arms. The front end
has been gone through. New shocks. New dual exhaust with crossover
pipe and correct trumpet tips. New fuel system including tank,
lines and straps. It has disc brakes in front, e-brake cables are
new. Bottom of the motor is clean, starter looks new. It has it's
original vin # matching Turbo 400 automatic. The tag has the OW
code which is unique to 1970 W-30 only. In back it has 12 bolt rear
with 3.23 posi and an aluminium W-27 cover.
This car was professionally appraised in 2005 at 96/100 points. It
won best of class at Olds show. Only 1,600 miles have been put on
it since. Also included is an assembly manual, sales brochure,
glovebox pouch with owner's manual, a pile of restoration receipts
and of course the build sheet. This is the top dog Oldsmobile
muscle car. It's full of options and good looks. Investment
grade!
