From our museum collection is this 1970 Oldsmobile 442 W-30 Sports Coupe!! ! It is 1 of 262 W-30 Sport Coupes produced in 1970. It is a correct 455 block but not the vin stamped original block. The motor and transmission have been modified somewhat but are the correct combination that it came with when new. This W-30 has been in our museum for many years and has a very interesting history! It was drag raced from 1980-1985 in NHRA competition. The driver for some of it's drag races was legendary engine builder Joe Mondello contributor to the Oldsmobile W-30 program! It held the Division III NHRA D-Stock Automatic record from 1980-1982 then went bracket racing from 1983-85. It ran it's best time of 10.90 at 125 MPH there and was retired after the 1985 season. It has been restored back to it's original condition but still sports most of it's original interior. This W-30 represents an interesting piece of the best of the Oldsmobile muscle car era!! !
