SUPERCHARGED 1970 Oldsmobile 442 RESTOMOD [4K]

[@chadbullock6326]

Always loved Oldsmobile. Probably my favorite car you've showcased yet!

[@jrockoclock7088]

Easily the best looking of the classic muscle cars and I'm glad someone's recognized that its worth an update.

[@jasongoodwin5455]

My favorite car of all time 70-72 cutlass!

[@jimmycline4778]

Mine is two cars,,,Blue C6 ZR1 and 2015 Z28 Camaro!

[@cali2468]

As far as old schools go, yes except I’ll throw in 1973 also. I owned a black ‘73 4-4-2 with a built BBC engine.

[@micheandmikey]

...... Jerry was a race car driver, drove so gawd damn fast, never did win no checkered flag but he never did come in last, Jerry was a race car driver he'd say El Sob #1, with his Bocephus sticker on his 442 he'd light em up just for fun ...... Love this one!

[@JohnW1711stock]

I had a 70 W-30 that was silver with black stripes. A beast of a streetcar in 1976! Great work.

[@kennethd7048]

You know Shaun, most people watching won't have a budget like that so that's why I appreciate ya posting all these great cars man

[@G.Orwell1984-q8i]

To me, this is the sweet spot. You have a modernized classic car that looks original, but isn’t. It is comfortable, the interior is mostly stock looking, but it’s nicer. You have a 442 that is better handling and much faster than the original, but it’s still a 442. With the highly upgraded suspension and the size of the car, the 600+ hp is not overpowering it. Love it.

[@IrishDevil78]

@@G.Orwell1984-q8i without an Olds engine it isn’t a 442….sorry, but that’s just the way it is. Chevrolet is gay.

[@sdry]

If I get rich I will contact this man. Just perfection.

[@jrockoclock7088]

not for nothing I went to a car show on Long Island about a year ago and 70%+ of the cars were 442s for some insane reason they were selling them for very reasonable prices.

[@rimarq]

Finally.... An Olds feature! I've been a strictly Olds guy since birth. They don't get the recognition they should. Hope to have my '71 on the legendary autotopia LA one day.

[@IrishDevil78]

And they put a Chevrolet engine in it, which is blasphemy, then charged a $400K premium for it. This is coming from a real Olds guy.

[@gordocarbo]

@@IrishDevil78 Its more or less same A body as a chevy just nicer.

[@bop455]

@@IrishDevil78 I agree. LS swaps are a dime a dozen. It would've been much cooler with an Olds engine swap IMO but at least its not crushed or sitting rusting away in someone's garage

[@mathewseymour531]

Man, I can't wait to have my 70 on the road in the near future. I was just gifted one from my dad. It's a 70 cutlass supreme sx

[@stickman5454]

There's that smile and chuckle when he puts his foot in it at18:15. What a great car reminds me of the Grand National.

[@melvinsr50]

Great 442

[@chriswalshe499]

I applaud you fr driving it. Badge of honour. Right on man.

[@My0186]

Thats a Sharp F-ing car .... Sean @Autotopia La.. coolest guy and drives the baddest rides on the planet.

[@G.Orwell1984-q8i]

I had a 1972 Olds Cutlass S. Very similar body. Noticeably different tail lights. Mine was a basic 350 v8 model in a similar metallic paint colour. I loved that car. It had all the right bones to be turned into a 442 replica. It was just a really nice car. I think those mid-sized GM ‘S were the perfect body size. They could be sporty and comfortable, with plenty of interior room for four and enough trunk space for summer holidays.

[@tjjoseph333]

Mom. had this exact car without the 442 package, had the Sports Package with gold buckets and int, 350-2, automatic. May have had gold vinyl top. Never ceased to turn heads. These LED headlights are fantastic. Oldsmobile walk-off styling- this is so well done.

[@fivelugs]

That’s a dream build Olds! You have done an amazing job with that 442..

[@thegivinofficial5796]

5:42 plug in the tire 😲 Dope car though !!!

[@craighighmore4302]

Magnificent!!!Love the colour (I’m from Australia so not a spelling mistake)……great video Shawn & car.

[@Fester_]

The same age as me and yes, I do look like it - a few more flares in the arches, body.

[@buddymccormack8668]

The 442 is an absolute beast! gotta love it. what a beautiful car!

[@Dbomb81]

Shawn, I love every minute of every epsiode. The cars are great, the production of the video is great. Keep doin what your doin! Keeps giving me motivation to keep restoring my 91 camaro.

[@paulhammond3488onetime]

I’ve seen this guys cars before and they are the way to go. That olds is real nice wow. Thanks again sir great video. Mix of old and new is the way to go…👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@MrDjohboy]

This care looks and is amazing. For me the LT4 is perfect for this car bc you need the power but you don’t want too much power, hear me out, you want to be able to ride with your wife or husband but at the same time be able to act a fool on the weekend. AND be able to fix it and not need a shop to lie to you about what you need.

[@tomnekuda3818]

Absolutely the correct color......fantastic street creds.

[@itsdeeperthancars2173]

That's a nice 442, I think they are slept on. We always see the Camaro, Chevelle, etc., nice to see the Cutlass get some love.

[@RecycledSoul]

I feel the same. My Dad had one back when he was young and said he didn't really feel excited about the looks and performance. He loved his Comet though. I like the looks of a 442 WAY more. I think Mercury Cougars, the XR7's especially, are slept on too. That'll be my first true, show class restomod if I ever get one. Everyone has a Camaro or a Mustang or a Chevelle or an Impala... Cookie cutter. There's a TON of cool cars people don't consider. You can find a host car for a lot cheaper.

[@AxelfoleyTheGreat]

I’ll take a Cutlass like this over them all. The Cut Dawgs are very nice cars.

[@____MC____]

The wing looks silly. Reminds me of tiny wings on a bumble bee drawing.

[@RecycledSoul]

@@____MC____ Not as silly as that stupid Charger. Between that and the boob bumper, it's the ugliest thing ever to hit the street to me 😂. People love it.

[@TheGunfighter45acp]

I agree. I love them all, but the Olds' always catch my eye.

what a beautiful ride. love the 442's

This car is beautiful. I'd love one in a '70 Skylark!

[@angrymike6759]

I really wanna see a 68 GTO hidden headlight in pepper green with green interior done up like this. 👍🏻👌🏻

[@miker7798]

A lot of friends had 442s back in the 70s. There was a 67...2 or maybe 3 68s... and a 1970 convertible in this very color. Always loved the 442s. I had a 72 GTO in almost the same color but the pontiac color was a bit more orange. Another great car in this body is tge Buick G/S. Orguably the cream of the crop... Nice car here. Another great vid!!

[@tomjones7057]

That sounds amazing.

[@karkacesub]

You really nailed it again! Keep being awesome.

[@fedupgamer9075]

The Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 is one of those cars that really makes me feel nostalgic. As a kid an older neighbor of mine had a 70's model 442. So sad Oldsmobile and Pontiac don't exist to this day.

[@brienakers3533]

Probably my second favorite next to the Chevelle with redlines. Big fan of the Oldsmobiles! Thanks for sharing! Roger makes you look like a little guy, holy moly!

[@lukiw7044]

Everyone ask, what car would you buy if money was not an option and I say not sure/nothing. But I have been lying, that is the car. 1972 Cutlass Supreme, hard top. But I can go for a convertible.

[@danmyers9372]

@@JLYHT - Drove a bronze ‘72 Cutlass in the mid to late 70’s after totaling two cars before turning 25. Needed a slow cruiser to get me to 25 when my insurance rates would come back down! It was a nice cruiser and the back seat was very roomy. 😉

10:01 - That car back there is nearly identical to my 1st car @ time of purchase - could not WAIT to paint it..but that darker/much "richer" version looks great on the Olds. Classically 1970. I dig it.👍

Sweet car, I didn't realize the 442 was the luxury version really cool. I like the transparency of the cost and what it takes to put a car of that caliber together. You guys kick ass! Thanks for showing

[@cuzz63]

The 442 was the performance version of a Cutlass. The W-30 was the higher performance package on top of the 442. The Cutlass Supreme was the luxury version.

[@ericharrison619]

The 442 was the Gentleman's muscle car, you didn't need the hair or tank tops to own one. They got down with the best of the era though.

[@noampitlik2332]

There is no way....in any reality or parallel dimension....that car is worth 400 thow. Can we please regain our senses.

[@theylive2749]

I’ll tell you right now it’s not crazy at all. I had a 1955 Chevy build that I was going to do a full overhaul on with an LT4/Tremec/rolling chassis and I hit a $100k just in parts. That’s not counting paint/brakes/tires/wheels/fuel system/wiring etc. Then you add a custom made interior and custom fab parts? Pffff you’re looking at crazy money just in parts! The biggest though - LABOR. 1,000 hours at $100/hr is conservative where I live. Full resto can easily hit 1500 hrs.

[@noampitlik2332]

​@@theylive2749I am in the business, too. They didn't even have to paint it. This is insanity.

[@ytgfhib]

​@noampitlik2332 If you're in the business, you should know it's a lot more time,effort and money to keep the original paint on a build of this level
