1970 W-30 Convertible, not mine

At least he did not make you read that whole boring mess before inserting the one little word "tribute".

https://boulder.craigslist.org/ctd/6136069953.html

Offered by: American Classics and Hot Rods — (507) 200-3209 — $38,000
The formula cooked up by Dr. Oldsmobile was simple but devastatingly effective: take the new 455 big-block V-8, stuff it with a beefy bottom end and a radical high-lift, high-duration cam, and balance and blueprint it. Top it with big-valve heads and a special large-bore Quadrajet 4-barrel carb, then wrap it up in a handsome body with a luxurious cabin and road-ready underpinnings. Finally, open up the hood so it can breathe lots of fresh air, and then hit the road in this snarling beauty known as the W-30. That was the theme in 1970 when Olds introduced one of the fastest and most well-appointed musclecars ever built, and it was all the better for the lucky souls who tooled along the boulevard with the top down on their rare 442 W-30 convertible. This restored Blue and Whte convertible is a great-looking example. With its White top, White interior and White W30 striping, this is one devilishly handsome car. SS1 wheels wearing BF Goodrich RadialT/A tires. Flared chrome exhaust tips are 442 trademarks. This outstanding tribute convertible is equipped with a heavy-duty floor shifter automatic and its combination of options. The elegant White interior is a well-appointed driver’s environment, with power steering, power top, Rally gauge package, four-spoke Sport steering wheel and a center console, with burled woodgrain trim on the doors and dash. Highlights: - Ford 9' conversion w/390 gears posi traction - tuned exhaust that growls just like they did in 1970 - Light Blue exterior w/ stripes - White interior - White convertible - Power steering - factory air conditioning - SS1 wheel option - automatic, console - Rally tach package - Sport wheel - AM/FM original radio with hidden blue tooth am/fm with C/D - Power top - recently restored

Only built about 8000 cars before mine, also a 342670Z car. How many went down the line every day in the Fremont plant? How many of them are tribute cars now?

I didn't make it past the VIN...

"W-30"??? Heck, it's a Faux-Four-Two.

Area codes tell you nothing in today's cell phone world. I have friends in DC with a Houston area code and friends in Houston with an L.A. area code.
