The Supercar Registry - 1971 442 convertible highly optioned + documented

1971 442 Convertible in Saturn gold-pearl interior. 72,000 original mile car. Bought new at beglinger-massey olds in Plymouth MI by Tom Kent. Ordered with a ton of options: 455 (standard with all 442's), hurst dual gate, buckets, console, a/c, tinted windows, RWL tires, SS1 wheels, Tilt wheel, am-fm stereo and 8 track, door edge moldings, hood lock, power seat, power windows, sport mirrors, floor mats, power trunk, rallye pak and guage cluster, bumper guards and light group which includes vanity mirror to name a few. Car retains about 60% original paint and striping. One quarter and one door was painted at one point. Car maintains a good level of pop and finish. There are some small perforations at the fender bottom and one door but nothing that needs attention as it is used sparingly. Original interior head to toe as is the top. The top has the usual wear around the center section of the rear window and the boot is also original and dated inside. I would never replace it as these cars are scarce with their day one tops still installed. Car retains its original trunk mat covering the spatter paint that the lansing plant applied. Not detailed under the hood except someone must have re did the radiator top plate. I still have the original emissions decal that came off. Untouched engine numbers matching and matching trans that runs strong and quiet, and it even has its original heater control valve which is 1971 only and is impossible to find. since I've had it I put on new goodyears, exhaust and date coded plug wires. It is turn key. A/c was overhauled with r12 a few years back and it could use a topping off. Otherwise everything else works as it should. There is something totally different about untouched cars vs reatored. They just feel better overall, and the suspension feels seasoned to where it just floats down the road. all the lights in the cabin and little evening lights over the headlamp switches thst shine throught the bezels illuminate, radio and 8 track lights all work. Now as far as docs go..I have it all. Window sticker, 2 broadcast sheets, 2 production sheets(because of the options there were a #1 and #2 sheet) protecto-plate and letter from olds thanking mr kent for his purchase. I also have oil logs and receipts since the 70's to go with. car was built feb of 71 and they still were placing the front bumper guards in the wrong location. They moved them a bit inboard later as the spot these are in wouldn't prevent the bumper from getting hurt. They only made 1096 442 convertible auto's this year and how many can be left ordered like this and not restored with added options. $45,000. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics..._shots_001.jpg
