1967 442 ID question
I found a 1967 442 that I might be interested in as of right now I have only seen photos and the owners description but I have sent him a list of questions. While I am waiting to hear back I have one question, this car has the CS emblems on the rear sides of the roof I think I remember reading somewhere that the 442 did not come with them. I know 67 is hard to prove without documentation so I am looking for clues that it is not. I really want a 66 but if this is a 442 I can be swayed.
Thanks

Good catch and good cause for suspicion.
Either it's not an original 4-4-2, but, a Cutlass Supreme that's been cloned
or it's an original 4-4-2 that has been rebodied with a Cutlass Supreme body.
You may want to take a look at the can of worms I opened up on this subject
a while back in thread in the link below:

If the car comes with it's original protecto plate that will give you the information about the engine and whether it's a 442.
Not if it was built at Freemont. Just a point of clarification. 5 refers to OPTION COLUMN 5, V (when used by some plants) is code for RPO L78 - 442 option. Y is another code that means Deluxe Front and rear belts (RPO A39)

i just saw in the original olds 442 comercial at 15 and 16 seconds you can clearly see a CS emblem on the back by the window editing damn you can see it before you start the video too.
