Beautiful car!! I love the color. I'm an ex-drag racer. I love the car layout. And looks like it works well too. Come check out my '71 sometime. Later.

Super nice Olds! I really like the Orange paint you picked out for this 442. I'll come back and see what updates you have put on here in the future.
