Leaf springs On a 442, in fact the whole undercarriage. Must be some sort of prototype because he says it's all original!

Funny, and I bet if you send a message saying that its not the original powertrain he'll argue....

I'll bet he just has the wrong pictures in the listing, since the oil pan is blue. However, there are so many other things wrong with that car even before I saw underneath.

That is the Ford-iest looking Oldsmobile undercarriage I have ever seen!

Wow. That's like the mullet of old cars - "Old on top, Ford down below!"

Looks like the pics are fixed now.

Meh, it's not too bad. Just not a $27K car. Added ('69 & up) front brakes, wrong dash ***** & 8 track, & a bunch of other details. I'd be somewhat surprised if it was originally red.
