Cool My 1974 442

Here are some pictures of my baby. The engine is a work in progress, so it's not what it will be.

I have a 74 442 also. I wish I had AC. Your car is nice. I picked mine up last year and haven't done much with it yet. It's a driver.

Wow, your's is really nice. Love that blue /white combo. I have the factory service manual so if you need any info, let me know. You should register it on the Olds regisrty.

Nice rides, guys. The 73-77 do not get the respect they deserve. They ride and handle so much better then the 72 and older. They really DON`t weigh that much more. I know that for a fact having owned many, many 68 and up 442`s and Cutlass'. And you really don`t want to talk performance because let`s face not all 64-72 442`s were built as barn stormers.

Seems like most Olds except for the '64-'72s get respect. I'm finding out the hard way how little respect my '78 is getting.

BTW, nice '74s you guys have.
