It's especially cool with that rear end.

[@mikelosinger7469]

In my opinion, the best muscle car ever built.

In 1970 AM radio still ruled, it's where all the popular stations were. Almost nothing on the newer FM band except clasical stations and elevator music. But the superior audio quality and stereo sound of FM made it popular by the mid 70's.

Saw a W-27 dealer replacement rear end axle assembly still on shipping crate sell for $19,000 at Oldsmobile Nationals couple years ago.

Love it when the back story is just as great as the car itself. Superb.

[@calebdaplaya363]

What color or paint code is this

[@VAHOSS]

The w30 was proven to actually put out around 410hp. The regular 442 was around 390hp

What a beautiful car It is interesting the inner fender guards or whatever you call them are red. I love the wheel covers. My brother always liked the 442s
