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.
Nice, Thanks for sharing that.
I'm 64 and yes sir I remember this gem. This is when cars were made to perform on sheer power. ❤They say money can't buy happiness but it can sure buy more horsepower.😊
Yes you are very very lucky, and Truly Blessed, good for you and your wife.
❤
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 👍🏻
You’d be shocked at what you’re NOT missing out on. I love old American muscle cars but the reality of driving them is a practical lesson in why it’s not always a great idea to meet your heroes. they don’t Make cars like that anymore and there’s DEFINITELY a reason,
Yeah...I like the shape of the old american cars too. Pickup trucks too. But here in east Europe they were never imported due to taxes, their size and the fuel economy.
I mean you may or may not find the exact stock factory make and model, but chevy made hundreds of thousands of cars in the 60s and 70s. Personally I like the small block with 2 speed powerglides. Just have to shop online and in person then spend a little money to make em drive.
@@evoandy so true.
Call it Beyond The Nostalgia
@@evoandyeveryone has their own opinion. When properly cared for these vehicles were such a Funtime bargain. What power.
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!!
Thank you to your dad for his service🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
What a beauty! Over 50 years old! Sitting inside makes just such a difference. Great job as always.
I just hope whoever buys the car doesn’t put those gay, ghost flames on it.
@@hbhamilton3410Please don’t use gay as an insult, this isn’t the 90s.

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.
Had a set of those tires on my 73 Charger, great grippers.
70 series bias ply tires common before radials like crager. Mag ripoffs too
Good times😊

The 1969 Olds Cutlass has been my dream car for over 40yrs.
I came home from the hospital in a 1970 Cutlass Supreme Holiday Coupe ❤
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!!
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.*
😳
@WD Detailing High-end restomods usually go for north of $200k for the W-30's and W-32's from 1969 and 1970.
If they had $100k to invest, they could make a healthy profit at Barrett Jackson ...or lose their a$$.😂
Thats Glade Green, which is paint code 57.
@Summer Rancher That's a respray. Look at the build sheet he pulls from under the back seat. It says, "59".
At the beginning, the owner said, "My dad didn't like the color. So he had it repainted."
Yep, original color on floor pan when the pulled the carpet.
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 !
To make it original it needs a complete new paint jog as that is not original color.
40k
This is a six-figure Olds
i dont understand how people forget about a car like this ??
I don't understand why people want to sell a car like this that they have for free! I guess everyone isn't into cars!
@@C_71or need money more than an extra car.
@@BamaShanks Or is white trash and instead wants a 4-wheel-drive truck with mudflaps that have Yosemite Sam and the caption “Back Off.”
Well…if it’s worth a mint and is not your passion…pass it along to someone who will care for it. Makes sense if you’re just not into fixing old muscle cars every other week..lol
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.
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.
Unreal, wow. I wish I could find something like that.
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.
Beautiful 442 and one heck of a wash & detail. Back in 1993 i pulled a 1974 442 out of a garage at my then Wife's Uncles garage. It was covered in mice and they ran from everywhere. The car was White with Black racing stripes ,bench seat w/auto on the column. The mold and dirt in the white paint took time to clean up but it looked decent when I was done. Unfortunately i sold the car and the nimrod that bought it broke the frame and it went to the junk yard in the sky !!!!
That’s beautiful. I had a jade green 68 w black vinyl top. ❤ that car.
Definitely satisfied watching the old girl get a bath
Blows my mind how some people let rare cars like this sit and rot. If you don’t want it, sell it so others can enjoy!
Yes, you're right
You never know a persons situation or reason
Yes I know. Mind boggling to me.
I think it's an attention thing. Hey lookie what I got,! They couldn't give a rats ass about it other than that.
I think you missed the point of the video
Very nice. Oldsmobile rocks!
Now THAT is a thing of beauty
Loved this! Love old cars, you guys bringing them back to life with intensive detailing was a beautiful thing to watch
I really dig that w32 442 Oldsmobile that's pretty nice guys did a good job.
This would be my dream car!Always liked the 442 cars!
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 😀
Wanted this car since I was 12. What’s great job. Hope I can find one one day.
Great job guys! You have one incredible pipeline of amazing cars coming through your doors!
YOU CANT BEAT THE WASH AFTER YOU FIND A CAR ..ITS SO SATISFYING ..MAKES YOU FEEL GREATTTT
I owned a 1969 442 in a gold color, although it wasn’t a W32 and it had an automatic.
Sold it when I got out of the Navy in 1974 while stationed in Brunswick, Maine.
Man - do I wish I had kept it!
love your videos man, keep it up, glad you explain everything you do as well.
Thank you!
Incredible transformation for such an old vehicle!! Great job! Love the vids. Hey fron South Africa
One of my uncles and the father of a high school friend had 442s - both were light blue. Very fast for their time and very fun to ride in.
Growing up my mom had an emerald green 1969 442 as her daily driver.. this video brings back my childhood
Wonderful car, and great job on detailing as everytime. Keep going 👍🏻
I love all these barn/garage finds you guys get!! Beautiful work as always! Keep it up!!
I did one too! ruclips.net/video/MYvZsW-IMZQ/видео.htmlsi=YhkGahImgB1t-kgP
Waoooo 😯 lo de la limpieza del piso fue muy bueno, me dejó sorprendida, gracias
My Dad had the same car/year not a W-32. Had a Hurst shifter. I think it was a repaint in a British Racing Green. It was a convertible with tan interior. Sure wish we still had it!!
Thanks for showing how you clean the floor, I was so curious how it looked like!
We thought you guys would like that haha
Awesome work as always guys. Keep up the good work!
How do you like the new shop versus the parking garage?
@@sturam1500That is not them replying to you. It's a scam account.
Wasnt sure if it was. I recall them saying the scammers are on their comment boards. Thanks Ronnie. 👍
Thanks for bringing an old olds back to life
My first car was a 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Seeing this Olds made me want it.
That vinyl top looks magnificent. Just like the day it left the factory. Great job. I don't think I could sell it knowing that I'd be hard pressed to get another one.
Find once maybe, find twice, never. The W32 is rare. I'd keep it.
But the purchased excavator would make it worth it, Specially seeing as the owner seems to have no interest in old cars..
Well, compared to a lot of these 'barn finds'. - this one was in pretty good shape.
I had a 69 442.. as well as a lot of late 60s and early 70s American Muscle.. sadly nothing I owned looked that nice.
But they all ran well.
The 442 wasn’t the fastest or the most highly sought after but it was an incredible riding and driving machine. Out of all the junk I owned, I miss it the most. Drove it and my family everywhere in it.. great car.
love to see you guys cleaning these old cars keep up the good work .
Best video yet guys! But I love 442s. I have one now with 17k original miles and had one 15 years ago. The Build sheet has all the options the car has along with the codes for each option. It looks like it has the W32 option if it has the 400 engine, automatic transmission, special camshaft, heavy duty suspension and cooling system. It looks like someone added W30 stuff on it like the induction system and red inner fender wells. I hope one day you guys take a car as special as this car and do a mega detail like detailing the engine and really take the detail to the next level so the car is transformed. As always great video guys!
what year is your 442?
w32 had no special camshaft the w32 is simply a 442 with the outside air induction
you have to order heavy duty cooling and suspension or it would come standard with big gears
from the shroud it looks like heavy duty cooling
@@johndillinger8482 I went off memory and my memory is not what it us to be😂😂 mine is an 87 and I had a 71 a long time ago.
Guys - it's REALLY simple to look up what the W32 option consisted of. It is basically the same setup as the the Turnpike Cruiser option of the previous year - and does have a milder cam and different rear gears, heavy duty cooling, OAI, etc..
@@MyDarkSide62 wrong turnpike cruiser was a 2 barrel 400 same engine that was in a vista cruiser..
Build sheet was not burnt. The browning and splitting is caused by the metal seat spring (condensation).
The sheets are usually stuffed between the seat foam and spring.
that isnt a build sheet
That’s the broadcast sheet not build sheet. It is on top of gas tank
I saw this cars twin yesterday in Vicksburg Michigan Car Show it was a very nice clean car Dark Green with Black interior
Fantastic! I love your videos! I have 1 gripe. After all that work, the lettered tires still look dirty/brown. Ya gotta use something like Wesley's Bleach White tire cleaner or a cleaner specifically for whitewalls. It'll make those letters white white!...like they should be. But great work!! Awesome car!!
I hope they have the original wheels still! Although I think they would probably be painted the original body color of "Meadow Green metallic".
If it were mine, I'd take the original beautiful body color of Meadow Green metallic (Oldsmobile paint code 59). It's stunning when it's mixed right!
wheels would not be painted same color of car.
If the car had SSII wheels, they would have been painted argent in 1969. The body colored SSIII option would be available the following year.
@@michaelpung4121 wrong
@@michaelpung4121 Thank you!
442 = 400 ci engine, 4-bbl carburetor and dual exhaust. Dark mettalic green with gold striping. My favorite color combination!
OR was it four barrel, four speed, dual exhaust?
@@kendallsmith1458 I can remember people arguing about that back in the early 70's!
@@kendallsmith1458
I believe you are correct and this one looks like it has an automatic transmission. My guess is someone wanted it to look like a 442.
@@bossier62guy four barrel , four speed , dual exhaust was used back in '64 when they came out . For '65 , when they started building them with ( boring ) automatic transmissions , they changed the meaning to ; four barrel , four passengers , dual exhaust .
Thanks so much for this vid abc showing how the floor system works! Great job! 😊
I had a '69 Olds 442 when I was in the Navy. This brought back some memories.
Those were a common tire back in the day ! Probably bring in around $75,000 my guess!
I actually found my build sheet under my carpet
$35k tops. $70k to $100kdollar range would be for '70 442 W-30s not '69s
@@lloydmckibbanjr5806 Agree, My guess is 30k on a good day. 70s are the most desirable 68-69 don't bring nearly the money and this car while detailed, will still need a ton of work and money spent on it to make it safely drivable.
Love the cutlass great color sadly he probably won't get very much for it unless he gets it road worthy
I was always mesmerized by that floor. I swore the entire thing had drainage under it! So cool! Oh and the car was a beaut!
Great job detailing. But heed this advice.....don't ever, Ever, EVER call a 4-4-2 a four forty two. Cars guys, and especially Oldsmobile guys will run you out of town.
Especially if you don't know what 4 4 2 means
Don’t encourage bad behavior by having suggest ridiculously high selling prices
And I love the mag wheels. They were the cool aftermarket wheels back then.
Parabéns, ótimo vídeo!
First!!
😭😭😭😭
🎉
Great job. I am impressed with your teams cleaning and detailing skills. Keep up the great work. Kerry
Nice job guys, worthy of a classic muscle car like the 442. Keep the videos coming!
Absolutely stunning! Excellent job!
Excelent job !
The Oldsmovile look like a new car 😮
Beafore 54 years old ,look terrific 😱
I from México 🇲🇽🙏
I'm fan the clasics cars since child !
Congratulatios Gays 👏😱🙏🇲🇽
Vraiment magnifique auto , et la config et dingue !! j'adore !
This 442 looks pretty solid especially considering that it came from Ohio. Back in the mid 70's tires like these with big fat raised white letters were available at your local tire dealer. They were very popular with the younger crowd at the time! I personally liked the Firestone Super Sport tire with the big fat raised letters. In 1980 I bought a 1970 Matador Red 442 convertible with the 365 horse 455. It was pretty fast and it had BF Goodrich radial T/A's on the styled rallye wheels that were original to the car. Anyhow great job on getting the old 442 all cleaned up!
Try using a little ZEP Super Flash to clean the floors! You will be amazed.
Yup congratulations. On your 442 w32
At First Glance Looks Black But It Is Green Very Nice 😁😁
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.
The beer can pull tab caught my eye while vacuuming, stopped using them in 1975.
I saw that too. Knew it had to be pre-1978.
Had a 72 2 dr Supreme , lusted after the 442 they are valuable for sure , original is king !
Brings back memories. I had the same color & hood stripes on my '69. It didn't have the W-32 or the vinyl top. It did have a four speed with Hurst shifter. Bought it while in the Air force.
I remember those tires when I was kid! They are Sears and Roebucks brand tires!
Absolutely beautiful car. And in relatively good shape.
After that detailed, no way I’d want to let that beautiful car go!
Amazing car. Great find guys.
Always wanted a W31
I've wondered about that floor for a long time. Thanks for explaining.
I think it would be worth a pretty penny. Beautiful unrestored.
Very Satisfying...
When I was a senior in highschool had a 1966 442 with a 4 speed, Hurst shifter and posi-traction. That car was a beast. I could smoke the both back tires for as long as I wanted in first gear. There was a spring in the Hurst linkage that would pull the stick over from second to third when upshifting so it might be in third at a stop light rather than first. You wouldn't even know it when you let out the clutch, the car would just go. The only car I ever drove that might have had as much power was a 1964 GTO with tri-power. I'm sure the Hemi Mopars would give it a run too. The late 60's were good, gas was cheap and the only thing you had to worry about was getting drafted.
Yes to the tires and wheels. Cragar, Anson Sprint, others with raised white letter tires were the thing. My brother put 60's width
on his '69 but they rubbed in back. Lots of great memories of my brother driving us to school in his blue 442.
Very nice interior color
Was waiting to see inside,Yep mymfriend had a BLUE one with The big engine,was one strong RUNNER.
Beautiful job on that car ! 👍
Amazing job, well done guys
That's the build sheet great classic car keep it it is very rare
Awesome job. 👌. Car came out better then I expected.
You guy's do amazing work !!!
Fantastic find, cant believe it was in that good of shape.
I had a 70 Cutlass my senior year of high school 1987. I miss that car. This one turned out great
400 cubic inch motor, 4 barrel intake, dual exhaust...442. Built the year I was born. Dope ass car!❤
where Im from, a lot of the muscle cars have the Cragers on them still. Still a nice looking chrome wheel and holds its appeal to this day. When I see these wheels on cars, it takes me back to my childhood days where my ucnle had these on his 69 Impala
I had a 72 Cutlass S with same Cragar mags. 70's in front 60's in back. Wish I still had it.
These are fascinating relics of a classic time when our Automobiles had that style.
By far my most favorite car you guys have done
BRAVO gentlemen BRAVO...
That car is a piece of art… thanks for restoring it. I could it smiling at the end of the video :)
I had some XSS Tires on my truck in the late 70's early 80's
