I wonder if there was ever a Pontiac 442?

I wonder how he has a 100% positive feedback and doesn't know what he is selling. If you read it's placement is for the front. You go down a little more then it says the auction is for a rear bumper.

Good eye Jaunty. It's a very funny one.

 

Why I'm surprised at you jaunty, the Olds GTO was the faster one.

 

You're right. I missed that. Damn. I did need a front bumper for my Olds GTO, too. I keep it in my garage right next to my Chevy Mustang and my Buick Imperial.

 

They also have a REAR bumper for a '66 - '67 Olds GTO!

That's ok on Cragslist about a month ago I found a 71 Ford C10 and I like how many people have Cutless for sale on Cragslist.

 

confusing , but nice looking bumpers. i ordered one for the front of my 72 vista wagon , just wondering whats really going to arrive. wanna start a pool?

 

If your Vista Cruiser is a Dodge Vista Cruiser, you should be just fine.

 

could be anything with these guys. i`ll just have to wait to open the box. i have been looking around at bumpers , and this seems to be a good quality , but ya never know. i had the rear replated , and it took a LONG TIME .trying to get this car wrapped up . want to move on to the next one.

 

Do you think that bumper will fit on a Toranado 442? (their spelling)

Don't be so critical. It could have been a simple slip of the finger. The "A" and the "O" are fairly close on the keyboard ya know.

 

What I get a lot is "That's a nice 225 you have. Does it have a 442 in it?"

What do you expect when there primary language is something other the English. All American cars look alike anyway to them that is

 

I've always cut a little slack to people who are only casual observers of Oldsmobiles or who don't know them at all and who, for lack of any other knowledge, make the really very reasonable assumption that "442" written on the side of the car refers to the cubic-inch displacement of the engine. After all, many other cars over the years, including the '67 Delmont 88 with the 425 engine, had the engine size in the badging somewhere on the car.

Now, of course, if they came up to me and said, "that's a nice Pontiac 442 you have there" or something similar, I would still slap their face right off their head. You can tolerate this sort of thing only so far.

 

Any car should be honored to be mentioned in the same breath as the legendary Gran Turismo Omologato.

For those of you whose Italian is rustier than Blue's

I only get the observations from the Unknowledgeable when there is another person nearby to impress!

 

Poor guy has a 100% rating so I bet he just doesn't know. Of course we all know what GTO means...GO TO OLDS!

 

Personally I like sellers like this

You get rare parts, in good shape, for much cheaper. On the down side, it makes them harder to find

 

I have an 83 Porsche 928. While I was at the gas station one time a guy comes up and says, "Porsche, isn't that just a hopped up VW?"
My reply was, "Ya, with a 4.7 liter all aluminum overhead cam V-8 that pushes this 'VW' to a top speed of 150." He just looked at me with a blank look on his face. I and left..... Quickly.

 

As much as I like the Pont. version, I'd much rather have 1 of these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_250_GTO
