MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to present this extremely high
quality and extensively detailed restored 1967 Oldsmobile F-85 442
W-30 tribute car. The previous owner painstakingly built this car
and it still stands strong today...inside out and underneath! The
car was built using a heavy duty modified convertible frame by
Smith's Restorations and and the body was assembled with hand
selected rust free and undamaged body components. We purchased this
fantastic example from a well known collector of Oldsmobile cars
and rare parts of over 30 years and stated this while building the
car "I�ve had a lot of interest in this project from some of the
leading Oldsmobile collectors in the country. It is my version of
what would have been a 1967 W-31, which was introduced in 1968. All
of the parts to build this car back in the day were available as
either RPO options or over-the-counter upgrades. The W-30 package
was available as an over-the-counter package in 1967. The W-30 cam
and the W-31 cam are one in the same, and the OIA kit will work for
both small block and big block cars. So, it was a possibility!"
Finished in a custom mixed Cosmic Blue Pearl, this Old's finish is
great and shows very high quality. A thin red double pinstripe runs
the length of the body and breaks up the blue nicely along the
beltline. The Red W-30 inner fenders/ wheel wells are correct for
this tribute. All the trim is present, complete and finish is
excellent. The louvered hood is tastefully done and complements the
body. The front and rear chrome bumpers fit is extremely tight and
finish is exquisite. The weather-stripping is pliable, with little
or no signs of drying, tearing or shrinkage. Inside, the interior
has recently been restored to very high standards, the front bucket
seats and the rear bench seat have been refinished with the correct
NOS fabric from SMS as so with the matching door panels. The
factory seat belts where restored to match the fresh look of the
new interior. The factory gauges were restored by R&M
restorations in Greenville, SC. They also installed a Sunpro Mini
Tach in place of the factory clock, looks like it came from the
factory that way! The dash bezel was restored by Chrome Tech USA.
They repaired the 44 year-old plastic, re-chromed it and then
detail painted it. The radio and heater delete plates were
purchased from Red Venom Enterprises. Also included is Vintage heat
and air conditioning with aluminum A6 compressor. There is the
addition of three SunPro gauges, (battery ,water, oil) mounted in
the custom center console along with a Secret Audio system with MP3
and USB ports. The original steering wheel is in excellent
condition and functions as designed. This stunning tribute of a 442
is nicely equipped with a Oldsmobile Toranado 425cid V8 engine with
w W-30 cam and fed by a 4 barrel carburetor, and custom W-30 OAI
(Ram Air) kit, polished valve covers. Power is transferred to the
wheels by a Hurst dual-gate shifter and a custom 700R-4 automatic
transmission with overdrive, built by Monster Transmissions. Custom
factory type chambered exhaust system creates a nice throaty tone.
Drivers assist features include power steering, 4 wheel disc brakes
and type O, 12 bolt (code TO) 3.91 anti-spin rear differential. The
18-inch Satin-grey Boss 338 wheels with Olds Rocket spinners and
Nitto Red Line tires complete the look. The 4-4-2 was one of the
greats. It is one of those cars that has inspired people to clone
them and build extremely well done tribute cars based on them such
as this gorgeous 1967 Olds. Many agree that the mid to late 60's
were the�pinnacle of American car design and�performance options,
here's your chance to add one stunning and very high quality
Oldsmobile to your collection! GET OUT AND DRIVE! Current mileage
on the odometer shows 4,321 miles. It is sold as is with a mileage
exempt title. VIN: 334077Z119714 Note: Please see full terms and
