Many consider the 1970 442 the pinnacle of performance for Olds. GM dropped the cap size on the motors in 1970 and Olds responded by making the 455 the standard engine in the 442 models. The revised body style and increased performance resulted in the 4-4-2 being awarded pace car duties at the Indianapolis 500 race in 1970.Motor Trend praised the 4-4-2 stating that "it's probably the most identifiable super car in the GM house". Those seeking to experience the ultimate in performance from Lansing could order a "W-Machine" version of the 4-4-2 dubbed the W-30 package. The 4-4-2 W-30 added a fiberglass hood (option W25) with functional air scoops and low-restriction air cleaner aluminum intake manifold special camshaft cylinder heads distributor and carburetor.

These limited production vehicles only continue to climb in value. Don't miss your chance to own this gorgeous appreciating 442 W30 Convertible.
