Really like the 442s. Kind of a gentlemans racecar back in the late 60s and early 70s.

68 L36 Roadster and 65 4-4-2. My wife's father was a Doctor in Petaluma, CA (American Graffiti). In 65 he was looking for a family car. He bought the Oldsey. So I have a 97K mile 4-4-2, always garaged. Quite possibly the most original copy left. I love this car...

NEVER to much red. My neighbor has a 55 Nomad, 53 Buick, and 51 Mercury all red. Not to mention his DD, his wife's DD, and his riding mower.

7T2 is right: lots of green.

This combination is very popular with our group. There's more inbreeding in my garage as I have an old Z-28 to share space with, instead.

How is the good Doctor Oldsmobile anyway? May he have many more great years ahead.
