It's been on ebay for some time now. Very cool car, original color is black.

The last '70 w-30 I owned was a 1 owner, low milage, automatic. Never will I buy an automatic W-30 again.

Yes, why no more M40's? I've always wanted a 1972 X Code 442 with an M40.
It seems like it would be a good set-up in a big car like the 442.

No excitement...not like a 4sp W30. Always felt like I was driving my grandma's '70 Cutlass, with a hood scoop.
