Vehicle Description
HIGHLIGHTS:
Two-owner car with mileage documentation spanning over 20 years.
Only 12,465 actual miles
Original window sticker included for that true collector pedigree.
Like-new condition inside and out – the car even smells factory fresh!
Dark Teal Blue Metallic paint over plush blue velour interior – pure 1980s luxury.
Power everything: Windows, locks, seats, brakes, and steering.
All-original except for routine maintenance items (battery, tires, etc.).
Original tires included for the hardcore preservationist.
Everything works as it should – no surprises, no excuses.
BODY OVERVIEW:
The iconic G-body styling of the 442 remains untouched and unmodified, a rarity in itself. The body lines are crisp, the panels are straight, and the original fit and finish are exactly as Oldsmobile intended. Whether you’re staring at the sporty factory graphics, the unique 442 badging, or the sleek aero-friendly front end, this car is a rolling tribute to 1980s American performance.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The Dark Teal Blue Metallic finish is fantastic, with imperfections at an extreme minimum—you’d be hard-pressed to find another 442 this clean. The original paint still holds a deep, rich shine, and the factory pinstriping remains sharp and intact. This isn’t a car that sat neglected in a barn—this is a preserved example that has been properly cared for its entire life.
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Step inside, and you’re instantly transported to 1986. The blue velour seats look, feel, and even smell new. The dashboard, door panels, and carpet are all in showroom condition. Every switch, button, and gauge is fully functional, including the power windows, locks, and seats. This is truly a collector-grade interior, that looks almost as if it has never been sat in.
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Under the hood sits a healthy Oldsmobile 307 cubic inch V8, paired with the factory automatic transmission. The car runs, drives, and shifts exactly as it did when new. Power steering and power brakes make for a comfortable cruising experience, while the sport-tuned suspension keeps it planted on the road. This 442 isn’t just a museum piece—it’s ready to drive and enjoy should the next owner choose.
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR:
Unbelievably low miles & incredible originality – This is one of the best-preserved examples on the market!
Factory documentation & originality – Window sticker, mileage records, and even the original tires are included with the sale.
Turn-key collector quality – Everything is working, and it’s ready to show or drive.
That unmistakable 442 look – A rare combination of muscle and class, in a beautiful and rare color.
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR:
You may be afraid to drive it – With such low mileage, every additional mile feels like a sin.
It's not a fire-breathing muscle car – The 307 V8 is smooth and peppy, but it won’t win a drag race.
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING?
Absolutely nothing—this car is 100% ready to enjoy. The only non-original items are basic maintenance components (tires, battery, etc.), and even the original tires come with the sale for the ultimate authenticity.
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR?
This 442 is for the serious collector who values originality, documentation, and preservation. If you’ve been hunting for a time-capsule G-body that belongs in a collection, showroom, or high-end garage, this is the one.

Dealership is not responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by third parties. The majority of these vehicles are considered classics or antiques, meaning they are older vehicles with sometimes dated automotive technology. We are not an expert in the construction, engineering, finishes, materials or components of these vehicles. Our employees are a team of talented individuals with a history in the classic car industry. We perform an extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent, but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent.

Dealership assumes no responsibility for any repairs needed to the vehicle and it's the buyers sole responsibility for any repairs that might be needed.
If marked "Numbers Matching" or "Original Mileage", the consignor(current owner) states this vehicle as such. Given how easy it is to create a “clone” or “tribute”, we cannot guarantee the authenticity of any and all claims. Customer is encouraged to verify this information on their own, prior to purchase.
We can assist you in delivery through our network of private and commercial carriers most of which can deliver the vehicle to your driveway. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody.
Because we advertise each vehicle with so many third-party affiliates, it is the customer's sole responsibility to verify the accuracy of the price with the dealer. All advertised prices exclude local, state, government fees and taxes. Pricing is subject to change without notice. A dealer documentation fee of $250 is included in the full asking price.
Vehicle availability is not guaranteed and subject to prior sale. Regardless what is agreed to verbally, we cannot guarantee a vehicle will be held for a potential buyer without a non-refundable deposit collected to hold the vehicle. Contact the dealership about pricing to place a deposit on a vehicle.
Our preferred and most secure form of payment is a bank wire transfer. We can accept checks, but note that any form of a check will have a minimum hold of 10 business days. This includes cashier's checks, certified checks, or bank checks of any kind. For cash received in the amount of $10,000 or more, we will complete an IRS Form 8300. We can not accept any credit card as payment or partial payment for a vehicle under any circumstance.
