Don't get too, too excited, haha. In this case of "classic Olds", I own one of the 1364 1991 Calais 442's with the vaunted Quad4 H.O.



I'm an Olds nut, through-and-through, however, and glad to be onboard here. Making a member's ride thread shortly.

That's about 4 cyls. and a few cubes short
of a 455, ha ha.
Welcome.

Jetboy

And not quite a second short of that 455, either. wink.gif Thank you for the welcome!

Welcome aboard!
Excited? Nope. Not a classic yet. Needs to be at least 25 years old. By my calculations you're still 4 years shy.....

Still, I can appreciate the car. I had a similar styled Cutlass Calais in 85. Factory order with 5 speed and shyteload of options. Good little car with the 'tech 4' but I only kept it for a year before going back to a Ninety Eight.

i had a 91 Quad 442 from 93 till 09. i love those cars and it is the only manual transmission car i ever loved driving.

If it was the same gearbox as the 85, it was a pleasure to shift. Nice tight gear throws.

Jetboy

The shifter arm assembly is the same, though the **** was likely different. The pattern is indeed nice and tight, almost notchy. It's as satisfying as working the bolt-action on a good rifle. Thanks for the welcome, Allan!

Welcome to CO. Clean looking car!

Welcome! Love the car! That would probably embarrass a lot of 'classic' Olds in all-around performance. Any other pictures?

Jetboy

Thanks man! She needs a little help yet, but she's coming along nicely.
Thanks also, murphy! From what I had read, it's the fastest and quickest Olds since 1972. I can vouch for toasting a V8 Aurora as well. More pics are located here, in my showcase thread n the 442 section.
