1968 Oldsmobile 442 (Canadian Built)

Oldsmobile 442 1968 Description

I am looking to sell my 1968 Oldsmobile 442. This car was Canadian built and spend almost all its life in Canada until I bought it about 2 years ago. Oldsmobile fans will know that the GM plant in Canada kept records of all the options that came with the cars out of the factory and that information can (and already has) been pulled for this car and is listed below.
The previous owner saved this car about 4 years ago from rusting away and did everything. I've just had to change a couple fluids and enjoy it.

This car was in rough shape when the previous owner bought it. He spent about a year completing fixing the rust (except the under hood frame) followed by a new paint job. The engine in it now is a rebuilt 455 with unknown specs. The original 400 blew a piston in 1972(ish) and was replaced by the factory. The replacement 400 did not have a serial number etched into it so retaining it did not seem worth it. The rear fenders were replaced along with the trunk floor plans. The front disc breaks were rebuilt along with the 4bbl carb. The seat covers were replaced with brand new ones along with the bumpers. The has a TH400 automatic transmission and 3.08 gear ratio. New Magnaflow exhaust.

Pictures of the entire restoration process can be found on the link below. Please review them to see the original condition and how it looks now and to learn more about the car. There is also a little information about the owner history which is nice. I highly encourage browsing the link because to clearly shows the restoration process.
