Greetings to all
Hello from South East Georgia. My Olds is a 1967 442 Post W30 which I bought new from Black Chevrolet/Olds in Walterboro, South Carolina in April 1967. Have also owned several other Cutlasses and 442s along the way.

Hi Chesrown,
Mine is a stick with buckets, Tahoe Turquoise w/black vinyl top and interior. Best qtr 12.03/110.70 @ Norwalk (Ohio) in 1972. A friend back in Cleveland area had Chesrown's 1968 Cutlass W-31.

Sounds like a real neat car and we can't wait to see the pics! It's nice that you have had it since new.
Been through Walterboro several times when I lived in Charleston and was on my way to visit friends in Jacksonville FL. Whereabouts in SE Georgia are you?

Almost 50 years ago when all this was happening. I am soon to retire from my post Navy job. My Olds is a factory W-30 and I should kick myself for not getting the build sheet from the dealer. I'll see if I have any pics when I get the chance. Bear with me. Lots of things on my plate right now. Thanks for your phone and email. Will be in touch.

I don't think you would have been able to get the build sheet from the dealer. Maybe a copy of the order form, but the build sheet was a factory production item, and Lansing was fastidious about taking them out before the car left the factory.
You probably still have the original protecto plate, and that's really a valuable thing to establish provenance and ownership.

Wow! Not very often it happens that we have a member who bought their original car and kept it. Most of us lament about the one that got away and wished it never happened. You must have planned ahead.
