Bought another one

Just picked this unit up yesterday. It's a real 64 442 Conv.,frame off restored.


















Actually bought 3 cars,a 66 442 3X2 HDT frame off and a 64 Cutlass Conv. driver with a 67 442 running gear. The 64 is still out of state and the 66 is @ a buddy's who may buy it. I'll post pictures of the 66 when I get them.

Did they all come from the same seller? Sounds like a nice collection to come across!

A real 1964 442 will only come with a 4 speed.
Did you get it from a gentleman name Bill ?

Yes they all came from a deceased friend of mine. He told his wife when time came to move the collection to contact me. There was also a huge load of NOS & used parts. I take no great pleasure in getting the collection but it was going to somebody.

Gene, I'm gonna go ahead and guess that '66 3X2 is probably sophisticated enough not to be taken in by a '64 4-4-2 with an automatic transmission.


Beautiful find! Would LOVE to see more pictures whenever you can post 'em.

69442rag I'm sure he knew a true 442 but as i'm sure you read 67442nut ask the question of auto or 4speed. So that is why I posted the fact.

Nice car and nice job on taking care of those other ones too. They'll have a good home.

I wish I could see the 64 vert in person. Really neat cars.

About the roses... mine peaked out about two weeks ago. But hey I'm in MO. There here and they're gone in a couple or three weeks.

Well, I never said that 442nut couldn't be fooled ... but your point is well taken.
