Gateway Classic Cars Chicago proudly presents the 1965 Oldsmobile 442. Step back into the golden age of American muscle with this beauty. As Oldsmobile's serious answer to the burgeoning high-performance intermediate market, the '65 model year marked a pivotal evolution when the package received its legendary 400 cubic-inch powerplant. Finished in an eye-catching dark red paint job complemented by a sharp black factory-style interior, this ready-to-roll classic commands attention on the showroom floor and out on the open road.
At the heart of this muscle car icon is a potent 400ci V8 engine paired to a crisp 4-speed manual transmission, this 442 delivers an authentic, high-revving muscle car driving experience. Keeping everything running cool and reliably is a 3-core aluminum radiator paired with an electric fan, alongside a manual choke for easy cold starts. Designed to handle as good as it looks, the 442 package comes equipped with heavy-duty suspension geometry. This example has been thoughtfully enhanced for modern drivability and confidence while maintaining its vintage soul.
