Default Joe's 72 ' 442

Hi Guys, Fairly new member here. I really like the site and the topics are always interesting. My ride is a 72' Olds 442. Not a super car by any stretch but she's mine and she is pretty sharp and moves okay. I've owned since 99' and in 2008 did a full restoration on it.

Very nice. Don't worry about it not being a &quot;Supercar&quot;. This site has evolved into even more than just supercars. Car guys are car guys and this is a place for car guys to hang out.

A 1972 442 is nothing to hide in the garage. That happens to be my favorite year for the 442. Is yours a true X code W30? If not, what engine is in it. We bought one new in 1972 and it was the first year for the 350 cube in the 442. I didn't care, I was 16 and loved it.
