ALL ORIGINAL: 1968 OLDSMOBILE 442 SURVIVOR FOUND IN A GARAGE, HAS ONLY 15K MILES!

If you believe the information about this car (I do) then by the end of this article you will realize that this is a very special car. This special car is a numbers matching 1968 Oldsmobile 442 that was found in a garage in Ohio. The car has only 15,000 miles on the clock and except for a water pump, everything on this car is original.

You can easily tell that the car was very well cared for. The paint is still shinning and the body is very straight without any signs of dings and dents. As you probably know, 1968 was the first year of the 442 Cutlass. Oldsmobile sold 33,000 Cutlasses that year and a small percentage of those were 442s. The car was last registered in 1974 and I am wondering if the car was only driven for 6 years. The spare tire was never used and I am wondering what is that box in the trunk? Maybe the readers will help with that. As you may expect, the interior is looking stunning and everything in the interior is original. Under the hood, the original engine is looking untouched and it is hooked up to an automatic transmission. That means that this car made around 325 horsepower back in 1968. The engine will need a good clean-up to make it look perfect again.

This 442 certainly is a very special car. From the mileage to the rarity, the car looks perfect and it is very desirable. With 15,000 miles on the clock, I am sure that someone will enjoy this car for many years to come.
