Vehicle Description
This 1970 Oldsmobile 442 is a real-deal muscle machine that has
been restored with a great coordinating look and some upgraded W-30
flair. So dig into the details - everything from the freshly V8 to
the stylish classic interior - and discover a thoughtful and cool
muscle car legend.
It's always nice to see an Oldsmobile that's ready for action. The
black paint has a nice gloss and the body panels fit well to show
off the fastback profile. But this is an overall driver-quality
presentation, and as the name suggests, it means the kind of car
you won't be afraid to take out on a whim and enjoy. There's
aggression in the details with the dual large hood scoops, twist
locks on the hood, large dual exhaust tips in the notched bumper,
and the full-width rear spoiler. But this car isn't all dark side.
There's a sophisticated tone with the full white stripe package on
the hood and running the full profile. The appeal of this car is as
clear as is black and white, literally. And there is some red, too,
as you can't help but see the red inner fenders of the hallmark
W-30 upgrade peeking out for added intimidation on this muscle
car.
The full black interior is exceptionally stylish. Oldsmobiles had
some of the best details with walnut-like trim, plush carpeting,
and intricate upholstery with both button trim and textured
inserts. There are good classic details, like the working dome
light and the factory AM/FM radio on display (an AM/FM digital
tuner provides your real driving music.) And as a true driver's
car, you have front bucket seats, Oldsmobile's four-spoke sports
steering wheel, auxiliary readouts under the dash, and a Hurst
shifter.
Under the hood is exactly what you want to see: a big block V8
sitting in-between the W-30 lightweight red inner-fenders. The
proper ram-air diaphragm on the air topper is quite authentic.
Sure, the motor looks like a beauty, but once you fire up the big
455 cubic-inch V8, it reminds you it's a beastly powerhouse. The
big block is said to have been rebuilt within the last 300 miles,
and now has a mild cam. It inhales deeply through a four-barrel
carburetor and an Edelbrock intake. It exhales with thunderous
authority from new long tube headers feeding the dual exhaust. The
four-speed manual transmission was said to have been recently
rebuilt. It gives you firm control as it connects with the new
driveshaft on its way to the stout 12-bolt rear end. There are
fully-boxed trailing arms, a rear sway bar, and new shocks to give
you confidence out on the road. Plus, you have power steering,
power brakes, front discs, and new tires for all-around solid
driving.
Complete with owner's manual, this is the Olds that has the
aggressive look you love, extra speedy upgrades, and the right
recent investments. So you don't want to resist this total package.
