Real W32?

http://www.oldsmobilecentral.com/for...42-Merrick.php Has a/c, which has been debated here, claims all W32's had 7" wheels (no). If just a 442, still not a bad price.

Could be great '69 442 for the money.
Beyond that, it is not a W32.
Anyone who rationally expects somebody to believe a claim like that would be quite forthcoming with evidence/documentation, etc. to back up the claim.
"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence".

I know pics don't always show paint in true color, but that color is mile off Sable.

seller a serial-flipper, always with that same crooked "this is my car, registered and driven by me, not some dealer" lie that I've seen on local craigslist and ebay ads in the last 2-3 years for probably almost 100 different cars.

probably cites "example" of a W-32 as his deceitful term for 'clone' to avoid lawsuits

just sayin....

I am always leery of long winded ads posted by sellers, usually a clue that they are full of it.

I emailed the guy and he said he didn't have any documentation to show it was a true W32.

Seats ripped, paint not only fading but not right, trashy carpet, no docs, after market radio, trunk looks re done. What else is wrong here? Guess a fool is borne every day and this guy is looking for him.

He says it has the "W32 package," but he doesn't say that it was built with it.

He thinks that's an out, but the fact is that with no paper, you couldn't prove it wasn't one if you bought it and sued him.

Is there anything in the VIN or body tag to indicate a W motor?
