1969 Oldsmobile 442

Up for sale is our 1969 Olds 442 W30 4 speed.  

This car has had a complete frame off restoration on the body.   The interior was restored to original at the same time.    This car is no disappointment and nothing has been left untouched.   

The car has been completely gone thru and everything on this car is new or restored.   The motor  was completely rebuilt by  by Don's Speed Shop in Kenosha Wisconsin. It was rebuilt to the original specifications. While the motor was disassembled. we were advised that there was a bad cam bearing journal in it as well as a few stress cracks around the cam bearings. The block could have been repaired. however. the shop would not guarantee it. so we found the right era block for a W30. and had all of the parts from the original motor put into the new block.   The car has under 200 miles since the compete restoration.   It basically sits in storage.

This car has the factory W30 option. ram air. 4 speed. nbsp;special order Crimson Red paint. bucket seats. nbsp;and console.   The body color was restored as close to the original factory color in base coat / clear coat.   PPG is the paint that was used.  What is interesting about this car is the color code.   It is a special order color but not sure exactly what it was called.   The - - on the body plate for the  color code lets you know it is a special order color which makes it even more rare for a 442 W30 car.    Olds 442 W30 factory 4 speed.   The W30 option is an optional package on 442's only built in the Lansing (M vin) plant.

We purchased this car from Oregon in 2007 as a survivor.  It was brought to Wisconsin as a father son project. Over 60K has been invested in this beautiful car. which was started a few years ago while my son was stationed overseas in Iraq.    I have the original listing with all details.   The car does not have a build sheet - which is disappointing. but does not take away from the beauty of this car.   All numbers point to it being a true W30.   

For obvious reasons - (model year of the car) there is No Warranty on this vehicle.   This is a pristine 47 year old car. that is no disappointment!! The pictures do not do justice for this car.  This car is meticulous - and needs nothing.    I encourage you to look up the value of this car on NADA to get an idea of the listed value.  

If you would like any more information or additional pictures or video of this absolutely gorgeous machine - please contact me at (262) 886 5874 after 5 PM CST. (Serious inquiries only. )

Happy Bidding!!
