This big bad beautiful silver Pro-Street 1970 Oldsmobile 442 is for
sale in our Louisville KY showroom. The 4-4-2 name derives from the
original set up of the first car that debuted in 1964. The set up
was just that a 4 barrel carb, 4 speed transmission and dual
exhaust. Pretty much everything desired on your first generation
muscle cars. Some people, even to this day, think that 442 is the
cubic displacement of the motor but in all reality Oldsmobile never
made a 442 CID motor. They did however make a 400 cubic inch big
block and in 1965 it was the motor of choice for the Cutlass 442
cars. Now , being that you could get an automatic, the 4-4-2 stood
for 400 CID, 4 barrell, dual exhaust. Sales would steadily rise
through the first generations 4 year span topping out at a tad over
25000 units. The 1968 model year would see the 4-4-2 become its own
model and not just an option any longer. This 70 is a great example
of these timeless machines. With 25195 actual miles you can tell
this beauty looks to be in great condition. This 442 comes with
loads of paperwork including the original build sheet, window
sticker, and protecto-plate. The silver with black stripes looks
just like it did when it left the factory over 46 years ago. Pop
the hood and the 400+ HP 455 cid motor looks right at home,
especially with the Chrome Valve covers and air cleaner. Mated up
to a turbo 400 this is one of the easiest driving big block muscle
cars to drive. WIth the huge amount of torque being produced, these
442's were known for laying down some of the nastiest blackest
burnout's that you have ever seen. Hence the reason this car was
tubbed, so that a huge set of steam roller tires could be tucked up
under the fenders. Options on this 1970 Oldsmobile 442 include; AC,
AM/FM radio with Cassette player, power steering, power brakes,
black cloth interior, seat belts, polished aluminum alloy Wheels
