4dr 442

hello fellow olds owners i have a 1964 olds f85 deluxe 4dr with 330 4barrell carb and 4spd tranny. I have owned this car since 1975 . Did a lot of street racing with this car and would take to the track occasionally it ran 14 sec quarter miles i think this is one of the 8 4dr 442s built that yr it has all the right options.It has been parked since 1980 iam getting ready to start restoring this car.The car is all original except for hood and drivers side front fender I rearended a mustang in 1978 coming home from a kegger.Transmission was changed to a m22 rockcrusher trans with a 12 in spicer clutch i still have the original m21 tranny this was my sleeper hot rod in high school in the 70s at the time i had a 64 chevelle 2dr wagon with a factory 4sd wish i still had that one .has any one else ever ran accross an olds like this one let me know.

I have never seen a car like yours. It sounds like a unique car. I think I can speak for the rest of us here, "we would love to see a few pics" of your car.
In the 80's I had an all original 67 Cutlass Supreme Conv with a 330 4bbl and a 4 speed. I paid $375 for the car. It was a sleeper. I think it may have had 390 gears because it had a speedo gear reducer on the tranny. I never got it to the track but I think it might have ran a high 14 second 1/4 mile. Those 330 motors packed a punch!
