Smile Soon to be 442 Owner

Hello. My name is Randy. I've owned two 72 Cutlass's in my younger days and was pretty handy with a wrench back then. Looking to spruce up my wrenching skills and hopefully let some of your good know how absorb into my skull before I take possession of my new 69 Olds 442. I am extremely excited about it since I've been putting off my car passion for most of my 35 year career.

I'll be retiring soon and am looking forward to tinkering with my new toy.

All the best and good health to all of you!

Welcome

Good to see you found your way onto the forum.

Randy is the gentleman who purchased my Turquoise 442. The car will be delivered to Randy in mid April. Randy is going to give this car the time & attention it deserves.

Regards

Dave

I don't think there is a better looking muscle car.

Thanks to all!

Very excited about my purchase from Dave and really looking forward
to seeing the car in person. I was bent on a 71/72 but I really like the
turquois (paint code 5555). Once I stared at the car long enough I realized I really like the lines on the 69 and it's a 442 to boot!

Congrats on getting a car and welcome to the site. Looked like a heck of a start looking at the pics of it. Be sure to share progress.
