Vehicle Description
You're looking at a real-deal code-44 1969 Oldsmobile 442 hardtop
that went thorough a restoration to make sure this feels fresh and
authentic. It's sleek, stylish, comfortable, and of course,
seriously powerful.
We really like the color of this coupe. It's like they took
Oldsmobile's famous Viking Blue and gave it an added shock of
electricity. And there's a super-slick shine from an investment in
a professional modern paint application. The aggressive streak
continues with black hood stripes, 442 badging, a full-width rear
spoiler, and proper SS1 wheels. It's all part of an authentic
muscle car feeling, right down to the redline tires. But above all,
you want this Olds because of its style. They did amazing things in
'69, like the trim line that starts at the headlights and
highlights all the great curves of the Holiday Hardtop's sheet
metal. Plus, we know you love the way the trunk, taillights, rear
bumper, and dual exhaust tips are all part of one interwoven
design.
The interior was also given all the right investments on this
classic. So stepping inside feels like going back to 1969. The
handsome buckets have a nice intricate pattern and plenty of
comfortable bolstering to perfectly deliver the 442's dual luxury
and performance personality. In between is the handy and desirable
center console, and the working lights on this piece really tell
you how detailed they were about this coupe. There's plush
carpeting, a working heater, and the classic AM/FM radio, so it's
vintage while still being inviting for family and friends. Plus,
the Olds four-spoke sports steering wheel and round gauges
(including a working clock) make the 442 feel like a proper
driver's machine.
While the exterior and interior go for a highly stock presentation,
the engine bay likes to use upgrades to put the big motor on
display. The bright blue is utilized for smooth inner walls and
accessories like the brake booster, alternator shield, and pulleys.
But even within all the blue, you can still absolutely see the bold
golden block of a proper Olds V8. This 400 cubic-inch unit is an
era-correct and 442-specific block, and so it's believed to be
original to the car. It has been upgraded with an Edelbrock trio
with the air grabber, four-barrel carburetor, and intake. Plus,
there are also Mickey Thompson finned valve covers and long tube
headers feeding an H-pipe dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. So
the full package is fresh, powerful, and a blast to drive. In fact,
as you look underneath, you can spot even more fresh style, which
is why this one feels so confident on the road. And the power
steering, power brakes, and a three-speed automatic transmission
make for a proper classic cruiser.
Complete with service manuals, a total package true 442 like this
never stays idle for long, so don't miss out. Call today!!!
