I bought this as a Cutlass parts car for my 442 the other night in the dark. Now that it in the light the more I look at it the more I think its a real 442

Cool! That's way better than "I bought a 442 and it turned out to be a cloned Cutlass" Is the car good enough to save or still going to be a parts car?

That's the delima now. If its a 442 might be worth saving. Going to have to look it over good when I get time

For someone who favors '66, you sure do handle a lot of '68s!!

It's not really that difficult Richard. Check the VIN.

How do cars get so rusty in TX ?
Does it have the original 400 G engine?

No motor has a Missouri sticker and Kansas plates so it not from here. Cars still do rust here usually do to front and rear glass leaking over the years

68's are more wanted by the masses so if I am trying to make a buck I have to keep that in mind.

Does the vin start 344?

as a 66-67 guy I also happen to like the 68s. Prob cuz the stolen 67 headlight design, lol

gearheads78

yes it does

That is exactly how most of the rust happens in OK as well. Weatherstrip and other seals dry rot from these 100+ days and when it does rain, they rust from the inside out instead of outside in like in the rust belt states. I have a complete G 400 and turbo 400 if you need a drive train to that beast.

Cars do rust in Texas, just takes longer to wash down the drain. Nice find Richard!

Wow, good luck! Looks like it could be a fun project.

Some people have stray dogs follow them home. You have stray Oldsmobiles follow you home. Hope you and the family are doing well.

Way to go Richard!
Those 68's seem to follow
you home like stray dogs.
