Vehicle Description
Another beautiful Basil Classic...this 1964 Oldsmobile 442 has been
handpicked and meets Joe Basil's standards of excellence and
tradition of fine automobiles since 1951. This vehicle is truly one
of a kind and one of the cleanest, unmolested 442's that you will
find! Buy with confidence!!This vehicle is part of a collection of
442's we purchased from a gentleman in Chicago. He individually
handpicked each of these cars to fit the high-quality standard he
was looking for. This collection of 442's ranged from 1964-1971 and
took 25 years to build! Unfortunately, due to heath issues the
gentleman was having, he needed to part with his meticulously
chosen collection, that he loved, and cared for greatly. Although
it is an unfortunate situation, it brings great opportunity for you
to own a piece of history. These cars are truly one of a kind, and
some of the cleanest and rarest, show quality 442's that you will
find!This 1964 442 is an excellent example of an unmolested,
original car. The way you see this car is the way it showed up at
our dealership! We purchased this vehicle from a gentleman out of
Chicago along with more of his collection of 442's. The original
owner had the car in San Dimas California, and the car has had a
total of only 3 owners! This is the best example of an original,
untouched car that was in the collection! This vehicle is a great
color combo, with a white exterior with a red interior. The paint
on this car is in excellent condition and the body is laser
straight! This car has only had one respray, back in 1984. The
surrounding chrome trim and bumpers are also in excellent
condition, along with the rest of the exterior such as the wire
wheels, grill, moldings, glass, and badging! The red line tires
look great on this car and nicely go along with the red interior!
Later model hub caps have been fitted the vehicle. This car even
has the original T3 headlights that are rare and hard to come by!
This is a prime example of a survivor car!! The all-original red
vinyl interior is also in excellent condition, especially
considering the age of the vehicle! Take a look at the carpet, the
door panels, headliner, steering wheel, dashboard, and everything
else... all is in spectacular shape! Under the hood is the 330ci
V8, paired with a 4-speed manual Transmission, this car is a true
442! This is also a no option car! No power windows, locks, seats,
brakes, steering, A/C or even a radio... This is a true bare bones
driver car! Someone walked into a dealership and said, "I want a
442 with the 330, 4 speed and nothing else... and this is what they
got! The odometer states 61,228 at the condition backs it up! The
engine compartment also looks as good as new! The trunk is super
clean and even still carries the spare tire! Check out all of the
door and trunk jams as well, all are in impressively clean
condition! The undercarriage of this car is also spectacular! Take
a look at the detailed undercarriage photos provided in the
gallery. You can tell that this car was properly maintained and
cared for by its previous owners. This car was also stored
properly, and only driven on the nicest of days and the
undercarriage backs that up!*The history of this vehicle speaks for
