1969 Oldsmobile 442. RARE W-30 Option. 6,000 Actual Miles.

1969 Oldsmobile 442 Bucket Seats

As to myself, I am a (67) year old kid that loves muscle cars. For my work, I am retired from managing a Correctional Facility here in Maine and had worked for the Maine Department of Corrections for (40) years. I am also a respected member of my community. I mention this only because of the value of this car and so that prospective buyers will have some idea as to who they are dealing with. Also, please check out my eBay feedback that is at 100% with (1,179) transactions. Many of my transactions have been muscle cars, which I have sold to individuals all over the country as well as Canada, England, France, Switzerland, Germany, Australia and the Netherlands. My reputation for honesty is well known amongst muscle car lovers.

This car is one of only 1,097 W30 2 door hardtop's produced back in 1969 and has extra low mileage indicated a little over 6,000 miles since new. As this W30 was purchased for racing, it is felt that these miles were accumulated prior to the restoration during the car's racing days.
