GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W30 for your consideration. The W-30 was a package option designed for the already popular Oldsmobile Cutlass 4-4-2. The project to reinvent the famous muscle car as a successful dragster started in 1964, and climaxed out of secrecy with the 1966 drag race like a jack-in-the-box. By 1967, the Cutlass 4-4-2 W-30 had fully come into its own. The 455 V8 fires to life and the automatic transmission shifts smoothly in all gears. It is finished in Azure Blue. This example is fun to drive and will smoke the tires a mile long if you let it! The exhuast has a good rumble to it that demands attention.
The Cutlass shared the GM A-body platform with many legendary cars (Chevrolet Chevelle, Pontiac GTO, Buick GS). Their flowing lines, mean stances, and ample room for plenty of power under the hood is exactly what you think of when you think of classic muscle car fun. The Oldsmobile 442 became its own model line in 1968 after being an option package for the Cutlass. 1970 was the pinnacle of performance from Oldsmobile. In order to keep up in the horsepower arms-race, General Motors dropped the cap on engine size in 1970, and Oldsmobile responded by making the Olds 455 V8 the standard 4-4-2 engine. Output was 365 hp (272 kW) and 500 lbft (680 Nm), with a 370 hp (276 kW) variant available with the W30 option
