1965 Oldsobile Cutlass Holiday coupe with 442 options, or clone

Description

Hello for your consideration is a 1965 Oldsmobile Holiday 442 coupe with silver exterior and black interior.The verification on these early years is rather difficult so the vin number and firewall plate is included,So please researc, i know it is a holiday coupe and has 442 badging so i am listing as a clone for sale.The original color was blue with a white interior i believe.
The car is a very good driver quality with decent paint, tires, wheels, exhaust,body and interior.The motor and tranny are not original. 1970 455 with L heads and a turbo 350 3 speed automatic, non-posi rear end .
The body is straight and has all newer trunk and floor pans, the frame has had two repairs in the common rear area, one older and the other recently,pictures are included, a body shop removed the fuel tank did the repair.
The exterior trim pot metal is pitted and bumpers are age, so all of trim and bumpers need refinishing if wish to show car, i included pictures to detail the area. So expect a nice driving car with good paint, straight body, worn trim .
The tires and rims are nice with torque thrusts and very good tire, the rear tires are slightly too big and may scrub at times. The suspension is original and would have to have all new shocks, bushings etc. to bring it up to speed, although the front end is fine for ball joints, and tie rods. Dual exhaust with cast iron manifolds for the stock look.
The interior is in good condition with newer headliner, carpet, the front seats are not oe, power with armrest, believed to be from a foreign automobile with matching rear seat with armrest also, very comfortable,has center console with floor shif, the shift lever is not origina, the dash is good condition.
The motor sounds very strong, no noise and the engine bay is clean, aluminum radiator,the heater core is not connected. So the car has a lot of attributes and strong points, don't get me wrong, i just like to be very straightforward and concentrate on the needs and honest description so you can better understand and visualize overall condition.
It is a very nice car.,not show,not all oem and not sure of 442 lineage. Includes new chrome sun visor mounts,door mirrors and trim for windshield and rear glass plus what is in picture. This is listed for a friend, including the clear title in his name.A great car to use, have fun with, and drive without over worrying everywhere you go.
Runs and drives fine, has stock drum brakes and a single master cylinder,no e-brakes, so could use a disc, dual master upgrade for serious driving. Please ask questions.$500 paypal deposit after auction and wire transfer remainder. No Warranty.Selling for a friend so i am describing the best i can and that it is best to ask and research to find out more if it is a 442 or not. thank you. Check current values and adjust accordingl, not giving the car away and not overstating its' value either. Once again Thank you

wanted to ad that this 65 Olds Holiday coupe is a real 442 not a clone !The listing will have the phrase clone due to the incorrect interior seats and non-original motor and tranny.If someone wishes to search for the correct parts to make it matching numbers car and return it to originalwould be great or drive as it is !! Thanks
