Description of 1968 Oldsmobile 442 442 Convertible |
1968 Oldsmobile 442 ConvertibleReal Deal Lansing Built 344 ConvertibleCode R Scarlet RedBlack InteriorBucket SeatsConsolePower SteeringPower BrakesPower Top This car has excellent upside potential. A real deal #'s matching Very Original 442 Convertible...that does not need a ton of work, but some tinkering...anything expensive is already done. Excellent Arizona car until 1999. The car is honestly a very rust free example with perfect floors, frame, trunk, 1/4 panels, fenders, etc. The man I bought it from had the engine and trans rebuilt in 2000, and only put a few thousand miles on it since then. He had the car stripped and repainted in correct Code R Solar Red. The paint shows very nicely! The Convertible top was new at that time as well...new pump, cylinders, top works great! The interior I had pulled the carpet to install new carpet and recover the front seats, but unfortunately never got that done. The car has mainly sat for the past 3 years. I would look at the brakes (4 wheel power drum) I'm including a front disc brake conversion with the sale. ($1,000 value)Tune Up (Adjust Carb, Change Oil, belts, etc.) Put a new carpet in, get a set of front seat upholstery. Front seats have covers over the original upholstery, but you can buy a new PUI set for $300. Dash, and rear seat are nice, console is nice. I would also put on new tires as these are getting old and one of the rear tires leaks down after a week. Car runs and drives...has a trunk load of spare parts, new grills, mirrors, etc. The great thing about this car is it is a real deal...#'s matching 442 Convertible with a perfect body, nice paint, a new top, motor and trans have been sorted out...just needs a weekend or two of tinkering and maybe $1,000 in "stuff"...ie. carpet, front upholstery, tune up items, tires. Spend a weekend on this car...and you got yourself a winner. I just don't have the time anymore to play with these cars. I priced it with a lot of room to be on the plus side of things when you are done with this car. You can never lose money on this car. It's a Red/Black #'s matching rock solid 442 Convertible! That you don't have to paint or put a top on or play with the drivetrain. My loss is your gain. I have a Central Dispatch Account and can ship you this car faster than your wife can get her Amazon order, at a wholesale cost. This car is listed elsewhere and auction can and will be ended in the event of a sale outside of eBay. Clean, Clear, lien free Illinois title! Give me a call at 630 273-7595 I'll post more pics this weekend...please don't ask for more pics. I'm getting it out of storage and washing it! |
