----Info on W30 67 442----

----I am finishing up the restoration of a 1967 W-30 442. I know that this car came from Brainbeau Olds in Braintree Mass but have no paperwork to prove it. I am wondering if anyone remembers this maroon/black gut two -door post Turbo 400 W-30. No options except the trans and transistor ignition. There has been some talk that the car was ordered along with an identacle 4-spd that Woodland and Andresen raced. The thought possibly might have been that the turbo 400 car would work better, but I know that Woodland was a 4-speed guy.
----So,,,Anybody got some info for me???.......Bill S

Maybe you should look into contacting Sam Murray. He was part of the Brainbeau team back in the day. Then he was part of Berejik team. He runs a 67 W30 recreation of the 67 car in stock drags and does nostalgia drags. He is on facebook....

----Thanks for your reply. It is appreciated, but I know Sam a bit. As a matter of fact he was a big help in finishing up the motor in my W-30.........Bill S
