1968 Oldsmobile 442 Convertible - YouTube
Video will open in a new window
[isdntekvideo]Up for sale by a private party is this beautifully restored numbers matching 1968 Oldsmobile 442 convertible. The 442 is on its third owner who performed all the work to restore the car to its current condition (in 2007).
Since the completion the Olds has been driven approximately 5000 miles and everything works as it did in 1968. The car was kept numbers matching except for the paint which is a Nissan Luxo blue. Otherwise the top and interior colors match the way it came from the Lansing MI factory.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 7 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all of the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
