Re: FS: 1970 Olds 442 W-30, with 18,324 orig miles
Colin -- Your car is gorgeous! How about a few more pics! :-)
While we're on the subject, are you aware of how I might be able to document the one-of-a-kind color scheme of my car? I've contacted GM/Oldsmobile, and they couldn't help. I've worked through the OCA (Oldsmobile Club of America) and as far as they could determine, mine is the only Ming Jade Green W-30 known to exist. But they can't be 100% positive, because they don't have actual production info. Is it even possible to document this fact with 100% certainty? Any feedback would be much appreciated, thanks!

Here is a link for my 71:
http://www.colinsclassicauto.com/detail.php?car=162 I don't think there is a way to document color break down on Oldsmobiles or any other car for that matter. Even PHS can't do it. Very much like my 71 W30 with the factory twin-disc clutch. I have been trying to find out how many were built, and at this point my car is the only one anybody has ever seen with the option. But I am positive they made more than one! Waiting for somebody to dig up another documented example to compare dates, etc. Colin

I'll bet that the rpm's come up quick with that clutch not to mention the pedal pressure has to be almost nothing...
