Does it have to be a convert?

Re: WTB - 1970-1972 Olds 442 Convertible Driver
 

I see you want a 70-72, but a few days ago I saw a supposed original engine southern US '69 442 ragtop advertised online up here somewhere?. Seemed kind've pricey around 35 thou?...and who know's what it's like??.

That fixer upper '71 442/W30 ragtop in the 'Rotting Musclecars' thread yesterday may be available...and real??.

Good luck!.

MUST be a convertible - no rust buckets. I want a good solid 2- /3+ or better. Can wire funds day after the inspection or if fairly local I can gome with cash.

There was a nice 72 442 Convertible at the Alantic City auction today.

what did it go for?

Re: WTB - 1970-1972 Olds 442 Convertible Driver
 

Around $195,000. Thorton Auto Body did it. The Oldsmobile guys! I believe there were 2 other verts that were in the 70-$80,000 range in those years.

Thanks all, I think I have one. Cleared the last hurdle this morning. The wife said, "if this is what makes you happy"....."go for it"! "Happy anniversary"!

Was this the Blue and White one that went across the block Saturday afternoon? I thought auctioneer said the owner wanted a $100000 for it,I may be mistaken it with another car.
