The 4-4-2 name reverted to an appearance and handling option package (option code W-29) on 1972 on the Cutlass Holiday coupe, Cutlass S sport coupe and Holiday coupe and Cutlass Supreme convertible. The W-29 option was not available on Cutlass Supreme notchback hardtops.The 4-4-2 option package, which carried a modest sticker price of $29, consisted of the “FE2” suspension upgrades (heavy duty springs and shocks, front and rear sway bars, boxed lower rear control arms and 14- by seven-inch wheels), side striping, fender and decklid badging, faux hood louvers and a unique grille.Interior trims differed on each bodystyle for which the 4-4-2 option was offered, much like the early 1964–66 models. For the base Cutlass hardtop coupe, a baseline two-spoke steering wheel and vinyl or cloth/vinyl bench seat was standard along with rubber floor mats (carpeting was optional); Cutlass S sport coupe and Holiday hardtop coupe featured full carpeting, deluxe steering wheel, courtesy lighting, and bench seats with cloth-and-vinyl or all-vinyl upholstery or optional Strato bucket seats; and the Cutlass Supreme convertible came with more woodgrain interior accents than the “S” along with an all-vinyl notchback bench seat with armrest or no-cost Strato bucket seats, between which a center console was an extra-cost option. An AM/FM stereo radio with a tape player cost $363.Coupe competition to this Cutlass Supreme in 1972 included Buick’s Skylark, Chevrolet’s Chevelle, Dodge’s Charger, Ford’s Mustang, Mercury’s Cougar, Plymouth’s Road Runner and Pontiac’s LeMans.Documentation includes original owner’s manual.If you’re after a GM muscle car from the early 70s, you owe it to yourself to stop by Motoexotica Classic Cars today to check out this Olds Cutlass 442 Holiday Coupe.VIN: 3G87H2M169166This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis, Missouri.
