Here we have a 1972 Oldsmobile 442 , matching numbers which is believed to have started the restoration within the early 90s, but got simply no further. The Rocket three hundred and fifty engine was rebuilt and appears to come with a lot of parts for the VEHICLE ready to be installed. But could it be worth the near $8k selling price?
The body is said to stay good condition with only a few rust openings and paint bubbles (I imagine you could get away with just patching up the paintwork rather than a complete respray? ). It seems to still have from the 442 package features, the interior getting relatively intact, bucket seats plus cool center console. the original vinyl fabric top has been removed with a couple of rust holes poking through. In lots of ways the car is in pretty good shape and needs putting back together plus refined. But like any restoration task, there’ s always going to become surprises along the way.
Using the 350ci. engine this Oldsmobile can be never going to be a super rarity, but if somebody got stuck directly into this project and made use of all of the supplied parts, one in excellent condition could fetch you a higher $20k pricetag. With loads of paperwork and the car that on the surface and might not need a complete strip down plus rebuild, this could suit an Oldsmobile fan or somebody wanting an even more straightforward rebuild restoration project.
