Oldsmobile 442 1969 Description

It's not just that you're looking at a real-deal code-44 1969 Oldsmobile 442 hardtop coupe that's priced quite nicely... It's that you're looking at a stellar classic American muscle machine that also has some nice upgrades for show and go.The Oldsmobile 442 is on a dual mission to provide performance and luxury, and this coupe seems to do it best. There has been a small fortune invested in sanding down the body and re-applying the factory-correct Aztec Gold. The new modern clearcoat finish and a professional hand applying it means this golden classic shines like true precious metal every time the sunlight finds this Olds. And while you think you're looking at a vinyl roof, it's actually the kind of tough liner paint usually found in truck beds (one would never know). So you get the appearance and texture of this premium package, but it has a unique durability that will keep it worry-free for years to come. On the aggressive side of this 442, hood pins and dual black sports stripes really let you know this car is a contender. But above all, you want this Olds because of its style. They did amazing things in '69, like the trim line that starts at the headlights and highlights all the great curves of the Holiday Hardtop's sheetmetal. We know you love the way the trunk, taillights, and rear bumper are all part of one interwoven design.The black interior is pure Oldsmobile with some great upgrades. For example, the premium bucket seats with vented inserts are correct for '69, but the comfortable center console in-between with cup holders is a great modern update. The door panels, carpeting, and headliner are all quite nice, and so you'll gladly take up to four family and friends with you for the ride. But even if you're driving solo, this Olds is still a lot of fun. You'll love slipping behind the upgraded wood and chrome steering wheel that radiates from within the dark interior. It also gives you a clear view of the factory gauges, the auxiliary readout trio, and the large AutoMeter tach w/shift light. These features remind you that while there is a nice AM/FM/CD stereo (w/Bluetooth), your favorite soundtrack will always be when you twist the key and here this 442 roar.Under the hood is exactly what you want to see a big 455 cubic-inch Rocket V8. Thanks to the wide manifold deck, you can easily spot that this motor has been given some nice upgrades. This includes a hotter cam, MSD ignition, an Edelbrock intake, and a Quick Fuel four-barrel carburetor. The power makes a great rumble as long-tube headers connect to the dual exhaust (Yup...400+ cubic inches, four-barrel carburetor, and dual exhaust it truly lives up to the '69 Olds 4-4-2 standard.) The stout TH400 three-speed automatic connects to 12-bolt 3.45 rear end. Even with this power package, the dual luxury and performance nature of an Olds always shines through. After all, no matter how much power it's putting down, it still has all-day usability of an Oldsmobile. This comes from features such as power steering, front disc brakes, and the grip of modern Hankook tires on those shiny 15-inch Unique wheels.All the best iconic pieces mixed in with some great upgrades and it's all on a real-deal 442! A total package like this never stays idle for long, so don't miss out. Call now!!
