A couple photos from the November Muscle Car & Corvette Nationals 2017 in Rosemont, Illinois. Here are two beautiful Oldsmobile 442 W-30 Convertible four-speed cars. The Burgundy Mist 1970 W-30 is an extremely rare 1 of 96 4spd convertibles built in 1970. It featured the special order all aluminum W-27 rear-end axle carrier and cover.

The 1971 Olds 442 W-30 convertible was sporting the beautiful Viking Blue paint with white stripes. It featured the very limited Muncie M-22 4spd option. It is one of the 32 four-speed W-30 convertibles produced in 1971 by Oldsmobile.

Both cars were restored by Oldsmobile specialists Thornton Restorations. The cars were just beautiful in person. Had a chance to speak with friend & Olds restoration expert Troy Thornton and both car owners. Both cars shared very interesting histories. It was a great time talking about Oldsmobile’s and Olds history. It was another stellar MCACN show in 2017. Thanks for checking out the photos - Peace!
