Default 1970 Olds 442 W30, 19k orig miles

For Sale: 1970 Oldsmobile 4-4-2 Holiday Coupe W-30. Ming Jade Green with black stripes, and green interior. 19,333 original miles.

PRICE: $125,000

Family-owned, ordered by my uncle in 1970 through McIntyre Olds-Cadillac in Council Bluffs, Iowa. I have the original invoice (dated March 31, 1970), original window sticker, Protect-O-Plate, copy of the original title and registration, owners manual (still in the original clear plastic pouch, along with the Protect-O-Plate), copy of the dealer-provided list of available options, original sales brochure, as well as additional paperwork and “W-machine” literature. **I've got photos of the car throughout it's entire lifetime. The car is flawlessly documented.

It has nearly every available factory option:

W30 – W-Machine Package -- $321.23
M40 - Turbo Hydra-Matic Transmission 400 -- $227.04
G80 - Anti-Spin Rear Axle -- $42.13
C60 - Four-Season Air Conditioner -- $375.99
A01 - Soft-Ray Tinted Windshield and Windows -- $38.57
N47 - Vari-Ratio Power Steering -- $105.32
JL2 - Power with Front Disc Brakes -- $41.60
PK5 - Wide Oval Tires – Raised Letters -- $26.33
P05 - Super Stock 1 Wheels -- $90.58
N34 - Custom-Sport Steering Wheel -- $15.80
A90 - Power Trunk Lid Latch -- $14.74
T44 - Interior Hood Lock -- $10.53
U58 - AM-FM Stereophonic Radio -- $238.02
D35 - Sports Styled Outside Rearview Mirrors -- $22.12
AK1 - Deluxe Seat Belts, Front & Rear, Front Shoulder -- $12.11
B32 - Auxiliary Front Floor Mats -- $7.37
B33 - Auxiliary Rear Floor Mats -- $7.16
A31 - Power Side Windows -- $105.32
K26 - Sports Console-Hurst Dual-Gate Shifter -- $76.88
U21 - Rocket Rally Pac -- $84.25
Y62 - Special Paint-Solid Color -- $83.20
Y60 - Visor Vanity Mirror, Underhood Lamp, Luggage Compartment Lamp, Glove Box Lamp, Ash Tray Lamp, Mirror & Front Compartment Lamp, Courtesy Lamps & Map Lamp, Instrument Panel Control Lighting -- $28.02

The Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price was $3,376.00, with a Destination Charge of $91.50, and Factory Installed Options Subtotal of $1,974.72, for a Total Amount of $5,442.22.

Note the “Special Paint-Solid Color” option. This $83.20 option basically allowed you to select any paint color offered by General Motors in 1970. The “Ming Jade Green” color selected was a Toronado color. As far as we have been able to document, this car is the ONLY 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W-30 that was painted Ming Jade Green – thus making this car one-of-a-kind.

The car is 100% factory original. The paint, trim, interior, EVERYTHING is factory original. The car has NOT been repainted – it's factory paint, with the exception of the driver's side front fender, which was resprayed in 1973 after it was scraped. The engine and transmission have never been apart or modified. No dings, no dents, no blemishes. All the chrome is perfect and factory original. All the glass is perfect and factory original. The rubber is still soft, and has not cracked. Never raced, never driven in weather, never abused. The entire interior – upholstery, carpets, headliner, etc. – are factory fresh and show absolutely zero wear. The original floor mats are perfect. The original foam around the air cleaner housing (that seals against the bottom of the inside of the hood to feed the snorkel air intakes) is perfect. A true benchmark car.

It still wears the original factory Wide Oval Tires. For most if it's life, it wore "Crager" wheels with other tires. (That was the "cool" thing in the '70s). So the original tires and wheels have very few miles on them. The original spare is in the trunk, and has never been removed.

The selling dealer is not the delivered to dealer. Inventory swap? Nice car, saw it on the Interweb also.

Oh the great memories I had being a kid when my Dad bought a brand new 1970 442 that was Gold with Gold Interior and White vinyl roof. I remember getting my license and that 455 would smoke the tires with no effort.

My uncle passed away in 2010 so I'm not able to ask him. But just called my aunt and got the majority of the story. The Olds dealer in Omaha, NE (where my uncle lived) wasn't able to get a 442 ordered for him. Not sure why, maybe they didn't have an "allocation"? But my uncle's good friend, Dean Rawson of Omaha, owned a local car lot and knew the owner of McIntyre Olds across the river in Council Bluffs, IA, who was able to get a 442 ordered. So the car was actually ordered BY McIntyre Olds THROUGH Dean Rawson. When the delivery took place, the transaction went through Dean. Were it not for this, it sounds like he wouldn't have been able to order it.
