WTB - 1970 442 or w30 or w31

As many of you know I am in the process of restoring a 1970 442. I am at the point where I am trying to decide whether to invest in finishing the metal work or buy something more solid. I have all the interior pieces, engine pieces, etc. What I am looking for is a matching numbers car with solid floors, trunk and quarters. If you have a solid car for sale shoot me a price and pictures digregorioj@comcast.net

70 w-30

Hello,
I will soon be offering my 70 W-30 for sale. It still has the original Sebring Yellow paint applied by GM techs back in Oct./Nov. 1969 on all original body panels. It includes all the original factory high performance parts, F heads, " Oldsmobile" W-455 aluminum intake, OW trans, OAI air cleaner, W&Z exhaust manifolds, Tick Tock Tach, etc. that were with car when I purchased it in 1985. I have 2 broadcast cards that I found in car. The original carpet, dash, headliner, console and door panels are all present and in good shape with exception of one spot on door panel. Floors and trunk perfect, I have not even seen a pin hole. Currently has good running 72 455. Original block was not present when I bought the car.

I have a few photos I will email you.

If this one's not for you, good luck with your quest!

Randy

The budget depends on the car.. I am hoping to find a solid body with an original motor that needs restoration. I had collected most of the parts to finish the 1970 I bought last year but am on the fence about the body - I had new interior pans put in but it still needs a trunk, and some firewall work. I would rather find something with a little less rust to finish. If I don't find something I will finish mine as I already have 20K into it
