I have seen a quite of few cars that are claiming to be w 30 cars , but they have power brakes and some have power steering. The sellers do not mention they added the power for comfort or everyday driving ?? here are 2 cars :

Power steering was always available on the W-30. For 66-69, manual drum brakes were the only option - power brakes were not available. A/C was not available in those years either. Starting in 1970, manual disk brakes were standard, but both power disks AND air conditioning were optionally available from the factory. The dirty little secret was that cars with these options DID NOT get the 328 degree W-30 cam. How this lesser cam could still produce the same HP as the more radical one is a mystery only explained by the fallacy of factory HP ratings.

 

No W30 Cam

It would kind of suck to find that out after wasting 80,000 dollars on an Oldsmobile.

 

That convertible does not look like real w30 look at the olds symbol in the middle instead 442...............

Yesterday the only w30 car at the Barrett only brought 50k ... take look http://www.barrett-jackson.com/appli..._LotNumber=942

Seems like the seller lost out on that sale ? That car looks like the real deal with documentation ....!!
