1966 Olds 442
SOLD!!!
1966 Olds 442. Was originally Lucerne Mist (Blue) with deluxe blue interior with reclining passenger bucket seat and power antenna. Original automatic, A/C car with 3:23 locking rear end. You don't see those options very often in 1966 cars. Has had a 1970 Olds 455 in it for quite awhile. I was told it ran when parked. You'll want to rebuild it anyway. The 70 Olds 455 was rated around 365 - 400 hp from the factory. All the documentation is provided below and in the pics.
The body is straight but the car has rust in all 4 corners. The front floor pans and the trunk will need to be replaced. There is also rust in the corners of the front and rear glass. BUT all the glass is good except for the windshield.
2 of the wheel wells have rust and so does the radiator support. It will have to be replaced. The frame is solid.
All the trim and interior is there with the car but the seats will need to be recovered, headliner, carpet, etc. The stainless trim is all there and straight but just needs to be polished.
Both bumpers are good. They have a couple dings that need to be hammered out and rechromed.

I've bought and restored several cars. I won't be parting this car out. This car deserves to be restored. It will be a beautiful screamer if done correctly. It definitely has rust but all the patch panels you can buy from the known sources for around $750-1000 total and fix yourself with a mig welder. It will just cost you time. The one exception is the trunk lip/edge. If you wanted it to be perfect this would have to come from a donor car I'd imagine. The rest of the car is there and is straight. All of the interior is there. The engine when rebuilt will be a monster.
You don't run across legit 442's everyday and these cars are worth over $20,000 when restored. You just have to put in the time. I'd rather sell it to an Oldsmobile guy than have someone part it out on Ebay.
I've described all of the issues. Not trying to rip anyone off. Just trying to find it a home. I'm at $4000 now. Make me an offer in the 3's and lets make a deal.

I had a buyer in KY but he couldn't make the deal happen for whatever reason. So it's relisted. $2950. Make me a good offer and lets make a deal.

Also, I had a few people ask me...the seats are the original reclining seats. Someone has covered over the entire seats including the headrests. But you can see the original seat covers underneath and feel the headrests inside. The reclining mechanism has been disconnected.
Also, the shifter is solid and does work. So does the E-brake.
