Oldsmobile's mid-size muscle machine, listed as a separate series beginning in 1966, has a 112-inch wheelbase. The 442 engine was made as big as 455 cubic-inch V8 option following GM's decision to rescind its unwritten rule against cars this size with less than 10 pounds per horsepower. The 442 has a beefed-up suspension, air induction hood, sporty striping, and other performance mods that were reserved strictly for this car. This automobile was a special order by a GM Executive. It was a barn find in southern Ohio with a frame off restoration started in 2005, completed in 2006.
