This striking 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W-30 was restored to high

　　show-quality standards using mostly NOS parts and is original with

　　matching-numbers throughout. This is one of only 3,100 Oldsmobile

　　442 W-30 models produced in 1970. This authentic example was judged

　　at the highest level by the Oldsmobile Club of America three times,

　　scoring 995, 996 and 998. It was awarded First Place and Best of

　　Class at the OCA Nationals. It was also awarded Best in Class at

　　the Louisville Concours D'Elegance and Gold Concours Winner at the

　　Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals. All the awards are documented

　　with judging sheets or the event magazines. As the original VIN Tag

　　and Trim Tag indicate, this car was built on the third week of June

　　in Lansing, MI, and left the factory with a Sherwood Green exterior

　　and a green interior. As the three original Broadcast Sheets (which

　　are included) indicate, the actual build date was June 17, and it

　　was equipped with the W-30 option. From the information gathered,

　　the car was ordered with the following options: Sport mirrors,

　　tinted glass, hood-lock package, SSII wheels, Sport steering wheel,

　　interior light package (including trunk light), stereo AM/FM radio,

　　8-track, rear defogger, dual-gate with console, interior floor mats

　　front and rear, 455 W-30 Ram Air package, OW automatic

　　transmission, heavy-duty cooling system, power steering and power

　　disc brakes. This vehicle was purchased on June 13, 1997, by Robert

　　Traina of Crown Point, IN. This information is documented with a

　　copy of a title, which is included. This car was found in Oregon

　　with 50,000 miles. Traina collaborated with his son Robert Jr. to

　　perform a complete body-off restoration. Their vison was to build

　　the most authentic Oldsmobile 442 W-30 possible. They spent the

　　next 7 years searching for NOS parts and meticulously restoring the

　　car using a 1970 factory assembly manual. Over 200 photos of the

　　NOS parts used and the entire restoration process are included.

　　Upon completion of restoration in 2004, they drove the car a total

　　of 460 miles. It was purchased on November 26, 2005, by Dennis

　　Sullivan, of Lebanon, OH. This information is documented with an

　　eBay listing, Bill of Sale, official check and title, which are all

　　included. Sullivan spent the next 5 years showing the car at

　　various events, where it achieved many prestigious awards. The

　　exterior of this car is absolutely spectacular. It retains all

　　original GM sheet metal and the body is extremely straight with

　　precise gap lines. It was refinished in its original color of

　　Sherwood Green, which is decorated with white stripes. The high

　　show-quality paint was recently detailed to brilliant appearance.

　　Everything on the exterior was restored or replaced with NOS parts.

　　The car sits on NOS 14-inch gray steel wheels with G70-14 Goodyear

　　Polyglas white-letter tires. The interior of this car complements

　　the exterior perfectly. All of the green upholstery is original,

　　with exception of the front bucket seats, which were recovered with

　　original Green Madrid grain vinyl. Everything in the interior was

　　restored or replaced with NOS parts. The trunk compartment was

　　accurately restored and includes an original factory spare. The

　　engine compartment is highly detailed throughout with mostly NOS

　　parts. It's powered by the original matching-numbers 455 V8 engine

　　with original F-heads. The engine was completely rebuilt with NOS

　　parts, including a 308 camshaft. The engine breathes through a NOS

　　dual-exhaust system. The engine is coupled to the original

　　matching-numbers OW automatic transmission, which was completely

　　rebuilt. The power is transferred to the 12-bolt rear end with W-27

　　cover and NOS 3.91 gears. The undercarriage is also highly detailed

　　throughout with many NOS parts. This car was recently serviced and

　　detailed, which is documented with an invoice that's included. From

　　the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection. ** PREVIEW
