Just joined Classic Oldsmobile.com-I purchased my first Oldsmobile in Nov 1969 from Wharton Oldsmobile-Parkersburg,WV! What a car it was 1970 442 W30 Post Coupe-Black/White Interior and White Stripes-4 speed car !
This car held Track Records in Pure Stock at 2 dragstrips here in WV and also ran at National Trail Raceway at Columbus ,Ohio!
My love for these cars has never seemed to end! Over the years I have had about 6 W30 cars and a F85 W31 I bought from Iowa with 14000 miles!
I had thought in 2002 when I sold my last off frame Agean Aqua W30 my desire was at a end? Now I realize I have to find one more car? Any Help from members would be Nice ?
Hope to meet many members in the future?

Welcome Sam. If you have any pics of your previous rides post them up. I am sure everyone would love to see them. Any specifics on the car you are looking for?

Thanks for the replys-Yes I am looking for a 1970 442 auto or 4 speed-If I found a W30 I would consider it ? Not looking to rebuild another car at this point! Many years ago I was a Advisor for the OCA on the 1970 W30! Since I had bought one new in 1969 I had lots of pictures and documentation on them!
My last car was a 1970 Agean Aqua 1970 442 W30 done by Thorton Restorations in Pa! It was really a beautiful car and I actually felt guilty driving it!
I would like to find a Nice Car I can enjoy that is correct? Thanks Sam
