1968 Oldsmobile 442

Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to present this beautiful 1968 Oldsmobile 442 for sale in our St. Louis showroom. The 4-4-2 name derives from the original set up of the first car that debuted in 1964. The set up was just that a 4 barrel carb, 4 speed transmission and dual exhaust. Pretty much everything desired on your first generation muscle cars. Some people, even to this day, think that 442 is the cubic inch displacement of the motor but in all reality Oldsmobile never made a 442 CID motor. They did however make a 400 cubic inch big block and in 1965 it was the motor of choice for the Cutlass 442 cars. Now, being that you could get an automatic, the 4-4-2 stood for 400 CID, 4 barrel, dual exhaust. Sales would steadily rise through the first generations 4 year span topping out at a tad over 25000 units. The 1968 model year would see the 4-4-2 become its own model and not just an option any longer. This 68 is a great example of these timeless machines. With a fresh repaint this burgundy beauty looks to be in great condition. This 442 has a gorgeous fresh repaint along with fresh rockers, and a hood. Pop the hood and the 400 cubic inch motor looks right at home, especially with the Chrome air cleaner. Mated up to a 4 speed transmission this is one of the easiest driving big block muscle cars to drive. With the huge amount of torque being produced, these 442's were known for laying down some of the nastiest blackest burnout's that you have ever seen. Options on this 1968 Oldsmobile 442 include; AM/FM radio, black vinyl interior, raised white letter tires, and rally wheels.
