Morning. Still having problems posting links. There is a ‘70 W30 - or what’s left of it - for sale on eBay for $14.5k. Guess it’s a project car ??? Can someone help post the link ?

 

1970 Oldsmobile 442 | eBay

 

Yikes. Maybe it's just me. I don't see 14.5k there. The ad is hard to make sense of. Sounds like a 4.33 posi is included.

1970 Oldsmobile 442 w30 with full Canadian GM documentation , ownership, dealership bill of sale 56,000 original miles. This 1 owner w30 car was unfortunately left in the elements and would need complete floor trunk 1/4 panels doors trunk inners outers etc a very big restoration. The car was a special order color. cowl tag and vin tag are fully in tacked. Original motor is seized with crack in 4 cylinder walls that I can see, crank was cut out will include it number matching block not sure if it can be fixed. included is the original 12 bolt posi with 433 gears drum to drum code TO, aluminum intake ,f heads need complete restoration, bucket seats and dual gate console and shifter, steering column and rally wheel, driveshaft, ss1 wheels, rear and front sway bars grills 1 side mirror, original 400 trans in a 69 gto case (car was in a crash in 73 and broke the original case) some small items . Dash and glass wiring harness back seats still intacked . I do have a good frame that can be used to transport if needed. This all I have that is listed no carb no distributor gauges red fender no front clip, no bumpers no hood etc . located 40 minutes from Niagara falls NY and 3.5 hrs from Michigan border in Binbrook, ontario. can help anyway needed for loading. Thanks and good luck bidding any questions just ask, Steve. More pics coming have some technical difficulties..........

 

My goodness! What a shame.

 

The stripes have been added and are not correct. Notice they don't go over the wheel well ? I believe the W-31 used the same body and stripes. Its obviously someone who knows nothing about Oldsmobiles.

 

Thank you guys for helping out with that.

 

Looks like this guy is selling a starter kit for a complete rebody job complete with documentation. Highly illegal to swap a VIN to another car, but it happens more than you want to admit. Someone should note that VIN and wait for it to show up in the future as a finished car.

Take another hit off that pipe and drop a zero...$1450 on a good day!
Tell you what... $4500 throw in the trailer. Its in ONTARIO not Arizona,
Customs would be a nightmare right now.
Let it rot.

 

56k original miles? But no gauges. Yeah ok. I trust him. No frame? Honestly I don't see why that car was saved. That car would take crazy money. I also do not see the VIN listed anywhere in the ad.

 

Question for the '70 experts - In '68, the Canadian-delivered cars received 12 bolt Chevy rears, did they switch back to the O-type rears by 1970?

 

So that would mean there's 56k miles on the body shell rust.

 

In above post #3 - 2nd picture down there is a yellow car in the background. Someone wanna take a shot make/possible model ?

 

well the yellow bumper in front of it would suggest a rallye 350.

 

Looks just as beat too.

I thought in 68 just the Oshawa built cars had Chevy rears. Didn’t the cars imported into Canada still have BOP rears?
