Re: 85 442 Pics

I would keep it stock and "all Oldsmobile". I hate to see Chevy motors go into these cars. It should be a nice easy restoration.

We are gonna keep it all Olds, it only has 54K miles so it should stay stock. We have another stock 307 we just picked
up yesterday in the parts car. We just have to pull it. Plus we picked up a 403 just in case we need it.

Good save...And that Father/Son project will be pretty damn cool too...Even though your "selling" it to your Son, it's still in the Family......Your a STAND UP GUY for that!!!!, Who are you kidding, you woulda gave it to your Son if he didn't have the $$$$ 8)

Thanks! Hes doing the Ford program at college and even thou we do car stuff together, drags shows etc. I thought it
would be cool. Even thou im selling it to him, hes not paying me as much as I payed for it, Plus im giving him a parts
car to use. So hes getting a good deal and working for it too...lol

Re: 85 442 Pics

It really isnt a bad car, body and drive tran wise 115K on the 307, dont know if it runs yet.
But the owner cut up the inside to narrow the frame plus it needs Dr floor pan.
More pics when I get it cleaned out.

Been busy but did get a few father / son projects in.
New 442 trunk lid on and lined up, and console installed.

 

[Blake442]

Since you just replaced your trunk lid, don't forget to cut your old RPO label out and save it...
