My old car price guide has this at 32.2 for a #2 and 20.7 for a #3. Would have liked to have seen under the hood. I would say this car is worth 25, not 45.
It was an estate sale. Dollars gets you donuts that it was inherited by a 50 year old daughter who has no knowledge of cars, or desire to learn, and sold it under 20 to an avaricious dealer,
who is going to be a ***** and drive prices up by wanting 100% profit, instead of something respectable, like 33%.

Your point about the limited audience for these cars is also well taken. Possibly that will keep prices from being driven too high, as few people even know what they are.

From the estate of the original owner, like the ad says. This car is a #2/#3 condition 69 442 hardtop. It has an oddball paintjob, odd interior, and the W-32 is unknown outside of Olds.

I don't know how you go through all the trouble of posting that you have documentation and then don't post one picture of it or one picture of the engine bay. Sorry to be skeptical but extraordinary claims require extraordinary paperwork

last year I was at the mn state fair, waiting to take metro mobility bus wearing a olds 442 shirt, when a i'd say 60's poor lookin indian lady wearing an indian thow said she has a w32! I turned around and said what? everyone knows people run into someone that says oh I had a cutlass, or 442, but NEVER a W32!! So I knew this was for real. I asked if she was a member of MN Olds club, she said no, then she begain to tell me the story on what color it was, and when her dad bought it in Buffalo, MN. My dad grew up in Maple Lake (the next town west on hwy 55) so I knew the area. She said it's for sale, I guess he passed, and the whole family wanted it, but she knew no one would take care of it. so she wanted to sell it. I asked how much, her reply not sure probably worth 30-40grand? I said good luck with sale, I said I didn't have that kind of dough.
So reading this ad and the brown, plus Buffalo MN dealership I knew this is that car. So i'd say this is legit.
