CAR IS SOLD -1987 Olds 442 1300 miles in Northern, IL

CAR IS SOLD!!!
1987 Olds 442 1500 miles in Northern, IL 60050 asking $19870 USD

In near mint condition inside and out. Probably the lowest mileage '87 442 with less than 1500 miles on the odometer. All original except battery. 31 Dark Teal Blue Metalic exterior with 27E/27I Dark Blue interior and trim. Loaded with options (81 RPO Codes). One of 501 built with RPO CF5 – electric, glass sliding sun roof. RPO U46 External lamp monitor (fiber optic turn signal indicators on front fenders). RPO D68 right and left hand outside mirror remote control. RPO K05 engine block heater.
Currently sitting on Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires but have the original Goodyear Eagle GT's (950 miles) tires in storage. All electrical and mechanical systems working except AC getting weak and power antenna not working. I have many original documents and items including bill of sale, window sticker, and owners manuals in RPO VH9 leatherette envelope.
I am the third owner. The original and second owner were related. I purchased in June 2010 with 651 miles. Many more pictures available.



Thanks ClassicOldsmobile.com Fred 815-344-3857

I took the cover off when someone came out to take a look at her the other day and noticed I had the mileage wrong. It was slightly over 1400 miles. It is still probably the lowest mileage 1987 Olds 442 out there!!!

thats a beauty Fred, it amazes me when someone (in this case several people)can hold onto a nice car for years and hardly drive it. If i owned that i would drive it every nice day!

RetroRanger - I originally thought I would drive it more and maybe put on 1000 miles a year. That is why I put on the Firestone Fire Hawk tires and stored the originals. However, I just couldn't get myself to add that many miles.

I have the car listed on local Craigslist with many more pictures: http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/4957221544.html

If I don't sell it by end of July I would like to take her to the Olds Nationals in Brookfield, WI. I have had many Olds cars in my driving career, more than any other manufacturer. '62 98 Convertible, '67 Cutlass, '75 Cutlass, '84 Cutlass Ciera, '84 Cutlass Calais, and the '87 442.

I have seen this car a few times at the McHenry cruise night.
Definitely a nice car!
I wish I had the money...
If you want to cruise with me and my brother to the OCA Nats on Saturday we live local to you.

Are you affiliated with Adams?

88hurstolds - Thanks for the endorsement on my car. Appreciate that. I have had her out to the Olds and orphan nights at Green St. and the Olds gathering at Volo. We definitely need to meet at one of the cruise nights. I live very close to the cruise - S. down Green St. about 4 miles.
You have quite an impressive list of cars!!! Do you still own all of these?
Yes would like to cruise with you to up to the OCA in Milwaukee.

Thanks classicoldsmobile.com for this venue and help sell my car.
I hated to see her go away down the driveway but know that the next owner is a true Olds enthusiast and will take great car of her.

The gentleman had 4 other Olds in his garage. I think he said one was a '70 W31. He was buying this car for his wife who had been looking to buy a 442 for several years.
