To begin, here is a BUY IT NOW price on thisULTRA RARE carthat may or may not appear on the main screen. The price will be good for the entire sale up until the last 12 hours, fter which eBay will not allow me to end the auction. To be fair, ou should know that ALMOST ALL of my cars sell with the BUY IT NOW option so don't wait until the last minute to bid as it may not be available by then.The BUY IT NOW on thiscar is $55,000.00 and that INCLUDES free delivery to anywhere in the continental USA.I will also discount that price by $800.00 if you want to come and pick it up. Sorry but I cannot include Alaska and Hawaii in free delivery. I may be able to include some parts of lower Canada. Please see details below on delivery. If you want to use the BUY IT NOW feature, ll you have to do is contact me (call 270-577-1821) and we can work it out and I will end the auction.Please understand that the free delivery is ONLY with the Buy It Now option. If you make an offer of less, nd I accept it, ou will not qualify for the delivery unless we have agreed to it in advance of the end of the sale.I want to restate that about 90% of thevehiclesI list sell before the end ofthe auction. If you want it, all me. Don't be upset if you try to wait it out and it's gone!Now let's get to the details on thecar!As an offer of extra security to distant bidders, want to make it plain thatI amnot in the business of misrepresentingmy cars like some folks do. I try to list every single that there is to know about the car. I am human and can miss something but I do personally inspect, rive and check-out each and every car that I put on eBay. If there isANY problem that I can find, t will be listed. It will also be address, hen possible. If you buy the car and make the required deposit, hen you come to get the car, f there is an issue that I was not aware of, ou will have the option to walk away and get every cent of yourdeposit back. NowI cannot be responsiblefor your transportationcost butI am notEVER going to keep a deposit if the car is not right. This does not cover items that are mentioned in the description or that should be plainly visible or for sillythings like youor the wife do not like the paint color or the way the seats "feel". But it is intended for items that may have been missed that have a serious impact on the car's value or function.I will domybest to correct anything thatI did not notice orI will refund thedeposit. If you are having the car delivered,different circumstances apply but that iscovered below.How many times have you, ike me, at and watched the latest Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction and said to yourself, an! I wish I could have one of those cars! Well, ere is your chance. This car is Barrett-Jackson quality.This auction is for adamned nice1966 Oldsmobile 442with theRARE Club Coupepackage and the highly desired 442 options. This is the most highly prized vintagecar models out there. The car is documented by GM as one of only 5 ever made. They said it could be a one of one but they were more comfortable saying one of 5. It is the only known model that still exists.Please note that this is a club coupe. not a two door hardtop. There isa pot behind both door, nlike a hardtop.This beautiful car only has10,728miles showing! It has been completely restored and is apretine example of the model. It won 1st place in numerous shows across the country and is a beauty in person. The known details of the restoration and modifications are listed below.The exterior of thisclassic is actually much better than new. It isa brilliantbrightwhiteand the paint and body areas close toperfect as you will find.

The paint is great with a high gloss and no problems at all. NO dents, icks, aint issues, ull spots, uns, verspray or other issues. This was a high-end professional restoration done with NO expense spared, here is no evidence of ever having previous damage. It is the442 model and the car has all the correct emblems attached. It is also the added club coupe,as seen in the photos. All of the emblems are in perfect shape. The chrome has all been professionally replated or replaced with top quality NOS style items. The car also has new rubber seals throughout. The door, ood and trunk jambs are inperfect shape andI have extra photos of them, f you need them. Theyopen and close so easily it's spooky!This caris an original442 and not some made-from-extra-parts car. It has a numbers matching400 with the rare automatic trans with column shifter. The floors are great and the trunk bottom is perfect. I also have photos of those. I can only put 24 pics on eBay so if you want more, will have to send them to you. The car has new perfect conditionOlds 551wheels with newP225/75R14 blackletter tires, oth of which give it a great look.THESE WHEE;S WERE $80.00each.I have found absolutely no issues with the car at all. I drove it extensively to see how it was before listing it. It was great! Started easily, an strong and handled wonderfully.I want to emphasis that this car is NOT some hack job like you sometimes find on here. This is about as nice a restoration that you will find unless you spend $100,00.00 on the car and having it done. The raingutters are totally clean and well done, ody seams are perfect, ody gaps are likely better than they were from the factory, aint is better than factory as is the interior. Again, have many photos that I can send and will take others if you need them. I have included a close-up of the firewall tag so those of you who are interested can research the car on your own. I do know that the firewall tag iseasy to read and you should have no trouble with it. There is absolutely no body filler on the car and it has never had a spot of rust!On to the interior. This one hasthe totally coolFACTORY red and darker red cloth interiorthat is absolutely perfect!I have photographedmore than 100classicGM cars and trucksover the last few years and this is the only one that has had this vintage, riginalinterior. Mostpeople just go with the plain black vinyl but these folks did it right! It is the exact interior the car was made with and not redone!.The outer edges of the seats aredark redand the inner sections are the darker red stripes. The door panels match the seats and are perfect, owever they have been redone.The dash isgreat with no wear, racks or fade. It hasperfect shape and has not bent like so many ofthem do in the center.This car has theextremely rare and original column automaticshifter, s seen in the photos. Thedark red carpet is original style and is in great shape. Some of thephotos may show the carpet to appear faded but that is not the case. It is just the camera flash glaring.

It also has a power antenna.They all work, s well. The car hasa factoryAMunitin the dash. It is a high-end car that really stands out.The interior is in GREAT condition. The headliner is also in new condition and the car has the correct lap seatbelts.The interior on thiscar is one of the things that makes it special. It is a beautiful design with comfortable seats and a great appearance.I know I am going to get a hundred questions on whether the numbers match on this car. The answer is absolutely yes!.It has been documented through Oldsmobile to be numbers matching with the original engine.And now for the mechanics. Ths car has enough powerscare your friends! It is the original 400small block and it is connected to a 400 turbo 3 speed automatic transmission. Both have been rebuilt and both operate well. The engine and engine compartment are restored to the same quality as the rest of the car. The entire engine is balanced and blueprinted and those papers come with the car. It has a Lumanti carb. There is an electronic cooling system for extra protection, s seen in the photos. It has headers that lead to a full lenght stainless steel dual exhaust with chrome tips.There isa great sounding rumble to it. It is not too loud but gets the proper attention. Again, have numerous other photos. The car has factory power steering, ower brakes and an aluminum mid-rise intake. The engine runs cool, as great oil pressure and no internal noise. The trans shifts well and grabs as it should. The car also has an aftermarket tach and a set of extra gauges under the dash, ust t be sure! All could easily be removed.. The rearend is a 10 bolt but to be honest, do not know if it is a posi or limited slip. I forgot to check when I was with the car. Again, his car only has10,728 miles showing. These are the originals miles!The engine runs like it is brand new and of course. there are no leaks or problemfos of any kind. The car is beautiful and ready for you to enjoy as a showpiece or investment! For those who love t o research, he block number is 390925E and the head number is V12104.

Also, lease check the eBay question and answer section below the photos to see if your question has already been covered.* Will you trade for my ................. (fill in the blank)?You are welcome to e-mail what you have but a few things to keep in mind. This is not being sold by a dealer. I am not going to trade you even unless you are offering something that is beyond belief. We are likely well away from where you are. If you have something to offer, t will have to be seen in person and that makes it difficult. I will need detailed photos just to give it thought. I am not interested in snowmobiles, etskis,john boats, ass boats, x-wives(or current ones!), r ANY type of project vehicle. I will consider items such assports cars. large boats oritems that are sellable quickly. I do not have time or the ability to deal with anything that I will have to put much effort into.* Does thiscar have airbagsand seatbelts?Yesto seatbelts andno to airbags. Itdoes have factorylapseatbelts (that's all it was made with and all that is required)andbutno airbags (SRS) (it was not made with any) and is not required toin anystate. due to the age of the car.* Will thiscar pass emissions in my state?I have no idea. I am in Kentucky and we have no emissions testing here. Ihaveno way to test it for any state and I have no idea what your state requires. Some states make exceptions for antiques. It is 100% up to you to check on these items for yourself. If you buy the car, ou buy the car. It will be your responsibilty to make it meet whatever requirements your state has. There may be no changes that need to be made since it is an antiquebut keep in mind that you will not be allowed to back out of the sale shouldyou notput any effort into finding out BEFORE you bid. Please refer to the last paragraph that covers non-payment. I don't mean to sound likea jerk here but the last time I failed to mention this I had an idiotin California complaining that their1978VWBeetle convertible did not have acatalytic converter on it!They were notmade with converters in 1978 and there is NOTHINGI can do about it.* Will you ship internationally?Yes, will but it is your responsibility to find out the costs.I am happy to helpmake the arrangements and have shipped numerous cars internationally. If you use the Buy It Now, r pay extra for me to do it, will get it to a shipping port. Please understand that a price a shipper gives you is from a port city. We are not on the ocean and the car will have to be transported to the port. That will be extra. I WILL NOT accept money orders, ashier's checks or any other check for international shipping. Payment will be made by a bank wire transfer and by no other means, xcept in some cases with Canada. I WILL NOT accept anything but the deposit through Paypal as their fees are too high to process large amounts through.* Will this be a goodcar for my teenaged son/daughter? They really like it and want me to buy it for them.This simplest answer to this is that you would be an idiot to buy a car like this for a teenaged driver. Not only is it too expensive toput a youngperson in, t is WAY to powerful and would just be plaindangerous. This isa classicvehicleand young people need to be only passengers in it. They DO NOT have the experience required to control this car, nd yes, hat includes your child. I don't mean tosound like an ass but I am stunned at the numberof adults who write or call me when I run a car like this and want to put a teenager in. Young drivers have no idea what is involved in caring for a car like this nor the amount of money needed to keep it nice. Parents should usetheir heads and putjunior in a Honda or Toyota and leave cars like this to experienced owners and drivers. Again, O NOT buy this car for a young person! The car is up to par but, o be direct, our teenager is NOT!* Do you have any documentation on this car?I have tons of documentation, aperwork, esearch and awards. All will be provided to the new owner.I have numerous photos of the underside of this car and many of other sections. I will be more than happy to send them to you but you will have to send me your direct e-mail address. I cannot send photos through the eBay mail system as they will not allow it. Below covers delivery and shipping options as well as ways to contact me directly should you want to discuss anything at all._______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________As for the free deliverymentioned above. The details are simple. If you use the Buy It Now, will deliver the car anywhere in the mainland US for free. I may be able to include lower Canada but you must check with me on that first. There are rules that apply to importing into Canada and all taxes and tariffs will be the buyer's responsibility. If I am delivering, solely reserve the right to decide on how thevehicle gets to your location. I may have it shipped by professional car delivery service, may delivery on my personal trailer. Driving it to you won't happen with a classic car. I will usually trailer it or ship it. Since I am paying for it, have to consider distance, xpense, ime I have on hand, ct. Payment must be made IN FULL before thevehicle will leave our location. No exceptions will be made, ot even to dealers!Fees and taxes.In most cases, axes will be paid by the buyer in their own states. No other fees are involved.
Bidding and payment termsare pretty simple as well. DO NOT bid of you have no money! These auctions are expensive and I will not allow zero or low feedback bidders to bid. If you do, will cancel the bid and block you from bidding again.Zero feedback is the same asnegitive feedback as far as I'm concerned. If you are not new to eBay but have no feedback and feel you should be allowed to bid, ontact me and we'll work something out. My cell is270-577-1821. Don't wait until the last minute to do this as it will be too late. As for payment, expect a $300.00 deposit via Paypal within 48 hours. The remaining amount should be paid within no more than 7 days. I accept any reasonable form of payment but checks must clear before the car will leave here. If you are picking it up, on't expect to show-up on Saturday or Sunday and write a check and leave with the car. Best bet for a weekend pick-up is cash or mail the check in advance so it will clear before you arrive. We will be happy to store the car indoors after payment for as long as needed, ithin reason, ntil you can come and get it. If the Buy It Now is not used, may be willing to deliver the car for a fee but we will need to discuss that in advance. I always welcome deliveries to Florida as I can always use more vacation time!Where we are: Henderson, Y is in Western KY which is close enough to several major cities that you can fly into them. We are about 150 miles from Nashville, N; 120 miles from Louisville, Y; 180 miles from both Indianapolis, N and St. Louis, O. The closest airport is a regional in Evansville, N. We can make arrangements to pick you up free in Evansville and Louisville, Y. For any of the other airports, e can get you but we'll have to have some help on travel expenses from the buyer. You are more than welcome to call me at any time to ask any question. My cell is 270-577-1821.I absolutely HATE to have to add this paragraph to my auctions but due to recent events, feel I have no choice. I have lost more than $1000.00 in eBay fees just this month due to non-paying bidders and I'm sick of it! This is not a game and a lot of people rely on these auctions to make their living, o pay their bills and to feed their families. Not only my auctions, ut lots of auctions on eBay. When I list a car, t automatically costs me $147.90. When it sells, send it to get ready for the buyer to pick-up, y the time it's ready to go, will have spent $300.00 on it. If the buyer does not pay, have to spend another $147.90 to relist it. This is in addition to the money I have already spent on it. So when one sells and the buyer does not pay, will have about $450.00 tied up in it. I am no longer going to tolerate non-payment. Understand plainly that if youwin and do not pay, will expect and demand that you will pay the full amount of the expenses that I incur in fees. Not the auto prep fees but the eBay fees. If you do not pay immediately, WILL file suit on the matter for the full amount of the vehicle, ll eBay fees, ourt cost and attorney's fees. I have not lost a single case in dealing with these issues. I also report to the credit bureau. Cases will be filed in Henderson County, entucky which will require that you travel to KY for court. Should you fail to appear, Y law (KRS 514.040) says that I will win by default. I will utilize all options to collect the amounts owed including liens on property and payroll attachments. No excuse will be tolerated. If you make a mistake, o what's right and correct it. If your mistake costs someone money, t is your moral and legal responsibility to pay to correct it. If you don't, hen it is my responsibility to protect myself and my family and collect what is owed me. I fully intend to do so. I don't want to be a jerk and this will not be an issue if everyone plays be the rules and does what they are supposed to! A note to parents: You are responsible for your children's actions. Should you fail to supervise your child and he or she wins an auction, xpect that you and that child will be dealt with in the above manner as well, f you don't take care of the expenses that the child causes. Do what's right and avoid all this!! |
