cool car, my friend had rocket 350 olds in a 1971 cutlass

Didn't you just buy a street rod to keep you busy? At this rate, you won't have any time or money left for any Road Runner.

Yes, but recently sold it.
Bye bye 36

I love my Mopars, I have a 62 and a 67. I’m also a closet 442 guy, love em. Nice catch.

442s were about the last models of GM worth owning.
Definitely better than a Chevelle or Pancho of the same vintage.

Love the 442 and Cutlass. I had a '73 and a '74 when I was in high school (pre-Mopar days) and had buddies who had a '70 Cutlass SX and a '73 442. I think I liked them because they were different than all the Chevys running around back then. I liked the swivel seats in my buddies '73 442. For whatever reason, I just thought it was unique to have swivel buckets in a car.

You know, that's not a bad looking car....for an Oldsmobile.
Did Captain Kirk's daughter come with it?

That's good. I hope you made a few shekels because you're going to need them on the Oldsmobubble.

I'd let her beam me up.

Nice, I've lusted for a 1-year-only Olds Rallye 350 from time to time. Don't ask me why, I've only owned mopars, its just a neat car for some reason.

Not in the case of the ad shoot perhaps?

One of the most fun muscle cars I have ever been in/driven was my buddy's 70 442-W30, 455, 4 speed, triple black. It would pin us into the seats !!!!!

I too have a 442 (67 though). There is a board similar to this one for Olds, Classic Olds:

I was 13-14. A guy took me for a ride in his 67. 4 speed. White with black hood striped. Lit that bitch up at a stop sign. Wow what a memory for a kid.

coronet500 · Jun 8, 2018

My brother my older brother (RIP) had a 66, 442. Even that 400ci was a torque monster,

Photon440 · Jun 8, 2018

Loved the 442 as a kid. I was going to get one someday, I said. But they were pricier than a Plymouth, so I bought my road runner instead.

I do have a 1972 Cutlass convertible with a 455 in the barn though. Someday it might be a 'find'.
