This 1969 Oldsmobile 442 Holiday Coupe was refurbished during previous ownership and acquired by the seller in August 2021. The car is powered by a 455ci V8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission and wears a repaint in blue over a matching reupholstered interior. Features include a Positraction rear end, a W-30-style air induction system, hood stripes, SSIII-style wheels, power-assisted front disc brakes, and power steering. This 442 is now offered by the seller on behalf of his brother with a selection of spares, an additional 400ci V8 block and components, and a clean Arizona title.

The car was refinished in blue during previous ownership and features white vinyl hood stripes, chrome bumpers, W-30–style air intakes beneath the front bumper, quad headlights, 442 and W-30 badging, and dual exhaust outlets. The seller notes a crack in the left drip-rail paint.

14″ Oldsmobile SSIII-style wheels are finished in blue and wrapped in 225/70 Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 tires. The car is equipped with power-assisted front disc brakes, power steering, and front and rear sway bars.

The cabin was refurbished and features blue vinyl seats and door panels along with a matching dashboard and carpets. Features include a remotely adjustable side mirror and woodgrain trim. A dash cover is included. The factory AM radio is disconnected and the right window crank is said to be difficult to operate.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer with an inset clock, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 7k miles, though total mileage is unknown.

The 455ci V8 is said to have been built by Wheeler Racing Engines in Blaine, Minnesota, and installed under previous ownership. A W-30 air induction system is fitted, and the engine is reportedly equipped with the following components:

Forged TRW 10.25:1 pistons
Ported and polished “C” casting cylinder heads
Competition Cams pushrods, rocker arms, and guide plates
Engle 523/544 camshaft
Edelbrock Performer intake manifold
Holley 850-cfm Double Pumper carburetor
