Oldsmobile 442
Over a longer period of existence of General Motors, the Oldsmobile was the number one brand in the company. Oldsmobile was created by Ransom E. Olds in 1897. The Oldsmobile 442 was a kind of operational response to the release of the Pontiac GTO and made its appearance on the market of the present furor. The car’s name is a transcript of the available “muscle” worthy of the brand, namely: 4 carburetors, 4-speed manual transmission and 2 mufflers.
Originally this car was an option package for the F-85 models and Cutlass, sold in the US since 1964. It became a separate model from 1968 to 1971, and then returned as an option until the mid ‘70s. Oldsmobile revived the name in 1980 as an option for the Cutlass.
