i am going to be posting a 1987 oldsmobile 442 with 90,000 miles. Car over all is in 100% original paint and from what i can tell is original and there. Has hust on bottom of doors, but might be able to save. Floors are good and rockers are good. Paint is chipped in places but no dents, etc and will probably buff good. Interior is overall good and all there. Does have a couple cig burns in seats, but dash is great console good and panels are good. Original drivetrain but 307 has a low end knock. I will post pics asap but whats a fair price on the car?

Well pics help us determine.
If what you say is all accurate I would give you 3k for the car since the motor needs torn into. It needs wrist pins and a complete overhaul they are notorious for this. If you have rare options it may be worth more to the right person.
T-tops? T-tops add some value to that also. I have seen 442s all over the board since I started looking, a decent car that need some work is at least in the 3-4000 range. really clean 7-10000 needing little to no work and I have seen some showroom quality cars in the 12 to even 18+ range. the thing about these is they have not "yet" hit the hurst olds popularity BUT they are becoming rare since allot of them have been parted out for their rear ends. i personally see the values on these go through the roof in the next few years but that's me. pics would greatly help here
Its hard to say without pics.......Depending on price and condition, I may be interested. I have a good VIN 9 307 that needs a home.

T tops add value if they are in good shape. Rusty T top frames and worn, shot seals are usually a deal breaker for me. Way to much investment to make them right.
It is a hardtop car, but like i said a heck of a start for a restoration. Pics will be up tonight.
