I own one of these, convertible. Bought it when I was 16. Took my wife on our first date in this, she was 14. I’m 62 and we’re still two kids when we take it out. Our routine is while top down cruising; she says you’re going too fast, I say what? I can’t hear you, you want to go faster? Down goes the peddle up goes the laughter volume. What a great life and wife I’ve been blessed with.

I'm from the UK so we don't have the privilege of these cars, they don't make cars that shape anymore so it's originality and nostalgia really appreciated. Nice job as always guys 👍🏻

When my dad came back from Vietnam, he bought a 1970 Oldsmobile 442 with the W30 package. 455cu in, 4 speed, 3:90 gears! He loved that car! This W32 package depending on year should have the 400cu in with 350hp. Still an awesome car!!

What a beauty! Over 50 years old! Sitting inside makes just such a difference. Great job as always.

I definitely remember those tires from the 1970s! They had full tread, which made them safe for daily driving while emulating the look of drag slicks. They were bias-ply (not radial) and a must-have for street rodders.

If they hadn't resprayed that, or put those Crager's on it, I have to think it would be close to 6 figures. The original paint code "59" was "Meadow Green", which was a light green metallic ...and *rare.*

The 442 is an awesome find. The value is hard to determine. Would be worth the front seat repair and some paint correction since there was a limited amount produced. Probably your best find yet !

When I was a kid, the Olds 442 W-30 and Cutlass S W-31 were my heart throbs! I never heard of a W-32; maybe it was produced in Canada? Gorgeous car! The original paint may have been a metallic mint green, which was popular back then. The saying was, "it could pass everything on the road, except the gas station and the radar trap!" I'd love to hear it run!!

Thanks for the memories. I grew up in Lansing, MI, where these were made. For all us schoolboys, the 442 was our dream car. Thanks again.

[anndaniels]

Loved this! Love old cars, you guys bringing them back to life with intensive detailing was a beautiful thing to watch

[xxpqtdl]

i dont understand how people forget about a car like this ??

[michaelnedwetzky]

I really dig that w32 442 Oldsmobile that's pretty nice guys did a good job.

[ScrappersDetailing]

Great job guys! You have one incredible pipeline of amazing cars coming through your doors!

[fordguy]

The 1969 Olds Cutlass has been my dream car for over 40yrs.

[SSCamaro]

I never would’ve guessed there was only 1 drain! That’s crazy! Thanks Guys for another great vid! Let’s do 2 a week again 😀

Great car, the W 32 was a rare one along with the Ralley 350. If I remember correctly the Superwide XSS was the performance tire at Sears. Always fun to light them up pulling out of the store.

[MrHuff]

Gorgeous car!! I know it's cliche but they don't make em that beautiful anymore. I hope cars like this get the love and restoration for years to come. I'm sure whoever gets this beauty will take good care of her.

In 1971 I was 15. This model car was the road monster other cars would not challenge. It ate pavement as it took off. I detailed cars years ago. I would soak the plastic, doors and dash with Armor All, let it soak in. Armor All dissolved the gunk in the threads and creases. Circular strokes are more effective and do less damage to the surface when scrubbing. It's much harder to scrub hard when using circular motion - so it makes you have a softer touch on sensitive surfaces. A horsehair shoe polish brush, the little round head one and the larger [rectangle] hand held brush do wonders. Spray a 2nd time before scrubbing after letting the first armor spray soak sit for 20 minutes. Armor All dries out more rapidly than you would like - so resoak with saddle soap and buff with another brush preserved for saddle soap buffing., Don't mix Armor All brushes with Saddle Soap brushes. The Armor All will ruin the desired luster and [preservation] softening you want to finish with.

That’s beautiful. I had a jade green 68 w black vinyl top. ❤ that car.
