Fender wells

Is it possible for a 1967 442 to have black plastic fender wells as opposed to red?

Black steel is most common for '67 Cutlasses

I have rarely seen plastic in a '67, maybe mostly 442's?

Only a W30 would get RED anything liner-wise. I think.

I would like to know more about this also. The only place I ever seen black plastic in 67 was a 4 door. I had an original 67 442 and it had metal but I can't say that is the same for all 442s

IIRC the '67 black plastic inner fenders were a Vista Cruiser "thing"

The reason I ask is because there is a 1967 442 for sale in California and the ad states black plastic fender wells. Didn't even know Oldsmobile made them in 67.

They do repro black and red 67 plastic inners. I have only heard of black ones on vista cruisers.

Well I parted a '67 many moons ago.
It was not a Vista
Probably a 4-dr
It had black plastic
I recall thinking "hmmmm that's odd" then discarded them.

Now, I use the "last time seen" rule to help decide whether to toss or keep something.
