Hello this posting is for my 1985 442, W42!! W42 model replaced the 1983 and 1984 Hurst/Olds model and used the same 5.0L LG8 V8with upgraded F41 suspension package was included. Only 3,000 of the 85 w42 were ever made so that makes this 442 the rarest of the 80s breed!! With that being said this car has been upgraded pass that to make it a real one of a kind! Some of you guys might have seen it posted before with the bad original motor, but after seeing it like that I had to replace it, couldn't take it anymore. So now this car has a freshly professionally built (Chevrolet dealership) OLDS 350 motor,kept it all Oldsmobile and I'm sure a lot of Oldsmobile guys will appreciate that. I have specs on motor and what heads are on there and al, if you're interested in that info call me. Motor was decked honed and new springs, surfaced and the works. I even put the cruise control back on and A/C WORKS!! Mechanically I would say this car is perfect, might need slight tuning but nothing major. Trans is the original 204r and rear end same 8.5 (stronger) rear-end. This car could be a show car with a couple adjustments. I have already won trophies with the car as is and that was before the motor was built and looking all cleaned up.. CONS... car has vinyl seats and the driver bottom is tore and will need attention as well as the upper driver door panel! This rest of the interior is very close to perfect if not perfect! Carpet looks great, dash is great no cracks. This car has no rust and is solid as a rock. New clean wet shiny kandy paint (kandy Tangerine) that flips between a cranberry red and sunset orange. Rims are brand new 24 inch Dub Floaters Padrone, new tires BRAND NEW! This 442 olds also has a killer sound system that needs a audio guy to tweak with it.. Has mids and highs with crossover. Beyma speakers !! (Loud) Extra battery in trunk with 3 amps and two 15s (3XL) subwoofers that can go along as well. This car runs and drives great, everything under hood. Motor has a serious cam!! big lobe! I have nothing to hide about this car, I built this car 3 years ago and the motor shot on me in the process and now after finishing it I have lost interest.. The car has never really seen the car scene honestly! I amsure I'm missing something or saying something that might not make sense because I'm typing too fast lol Please call for more info or detailed info. This car is the real deal no scam no problems and would be a great addition to any car collector or car guys garage! Oh and viper alarm as well, I'm sure I amforgetting something. I know this doesn't matter but I have over 14k in this car. My car guys can relate, please call if serious about car thank you. I also have the build sheet and original window sticker along with manuals!! 8167302881 Need pictures just call!!
