My new-to-me 1967 442

I just picked up this 1967 442. It is a gorgeous car and very well done, but is not stock. It features a 1970 455 bored .030 over, ported C heads, and oversize factory style exhaust manifolds. It has 3.42 anti-spin and the smoothest shifting 4-speed I've ever had the pleasure to row. The suspension has been upgraded and it has disc brakes in the front. It handles very well. All the suspensioni components and the frame have been powder coated. The chrome and trim are excellent, and it has new glass and a new Legendary interior. I'm very pleased with it.

These are some quick photos I took for my insurance agent. I haven't detailed under the hood or the interior yet.

Gorgeous car, I just love it! As a proud owner of a '67 4-4-2 myself, I'm just a little bit partial. Congrats!

It could use the side stripe to break up the white.

Cool car! Apparently the builder knew a few things about Oldsmobiles due to the 1970 455 block with the ‘68-69 C heads. Have fun with it.
